It’s back to office! After months of pandemic-related disruptions, things are back to normal, and even better from the real estate sector’s point of view. Though work-from-home and hybrid work cultures are still being resorted to in parts, the majority of offices have reopened their doors to employees with full regularity. This has led to a boom in the demand for office spaces, which has spurted to record levels, going by the recent research reports, surveys and opinions of industry insiders.
What has given further thrust to office leasing is the requirement of additional work space by the majority of companies, keeping in view the post-pandemic compulsions. Social distancing, which became a norm during the past two years, is being adhered to by most of the establishments to ensure the safety, as also to win the trust, of their workforce. Hence, besides being a place with larger space, the concept of office has also evolved now with a view to creating a fine balance between safety, constructive collaboration, and overall work efficiency.
