Working from home was quite comfortable, right? For some it still is. But for the rest, there’s a strong yearning to return to their work-stations. Lucky for all, a middle ground between working from home and office has been achieved. In this article, we shall understand how local spaces make for excellent coworking spaces that satisfy requirements of both, office and home.
Remote Teams, Local Spaces: How Coworking Supports Distributed Workforces
Companies with larger workforces have resorted to coworking spaces since Covid-19 struck the globe. It has a number of benefits in today’s constantly changing workstyle.
Benefits:
1.Social distancing and safety
Social distancing has taken a 180 degree turn, courtesy of the pandemic. This means a workforce can’t have all the members present in office. Alternate options include calling employees as per the odd-even rule, working from home entirely and booking a coworking space near by for specific teams that need to work in person. For the third option, coworking spaces like OurDesk are best economically and otherwise.
2. Sufficient space
Coworking spaces are designed in such a way that they can easily provide for more than one company/business/workforce/freelancers and so on. Which means even if the team of an entire office has booked their designated desks, there will still be enough room for other companies/freelancers/students to book their desks and be a happy members of the coworking space.
3. Beneficial for distributed workforce
There are instances in companies with various workforce where not every department can fit in. In such cases, it’s rather smart to book coworking spaces for a few departments for a stipulated number of periods.This ensures that work is being done and the departments get an opportunity to know each other better, this bonding not only amongst them but also with coworkers outside their department proves to be beneficial.
4. Book as per your requirements
Flexi-desks, meeting rooms, seminar halls, etc, are to be booked in advance based on specific requirements. It’s much better than having a meeting in a noisy cafe or a restaurant. This is done so that every member of the coworking space can use these facilities when needed. Coworking spaces believe in the saying “Sharing is Caring”. Every resource must be used keeping in mind that there are other members too, even though it’s made sure that these resources never fall short.
5. Ensured Privacy
Looking after the utilisation of resources like mentioned above is crucial but it doesn’t mean your privacy will be at stake. Coworking spaces make sure that complete privacy is maintained by all their members. There’s plenty space for privacy to not come off as an issue here. One can sit back and relax for there’s no nose-poking here at all.
6. Building Community
Coworking spaces are known for cultivating a positive work environment which in turn makes for building an equally vibrant community. Each member of a coworking space is important in developing a community so close to home, a place were each can rely on at any time of day. Forming bonds that last a lifetime.
