Aside from the human desire to want people to be happy, there is a very sensible business reason why you should want to see a smile on the face of your employees – profits.
Within a modern office environment the cost of unhappy workers can add up to thousands if not more for a business. This is called employee disengagement and that basically means your employees have “checked out”, they don’t really care about the job because they’re so unhappy in the space. They aren’t motivated, they don’t have job satisfaction and they don’t feel listened to.
Providing your staff with a supportive and inspiring place to work is the most basic thing you should be doing, and that means office space planning which incorporates the very best office furniture for their needs.
Why? Because if your staff don’t feel valued, they’re not going to try, and that means no extra effort, no new ideas, no top quality customer service, and more mistakes than you can count.
You don’t just want to see your workers happy whilst they’re sat at their designer office desk, you NEED to see them happy for the sake of your business success!
