Worklife Balance

Employees may need to address household and family duties such as parenthood, caring for a sick relative or coping with plumbing or electrical failures. Sometimes just an hour or two of flexibility will avoid the situation where a person feels that only a whole day off work will give them the freedom to address such occurrences.

This is where an inbuilt and fully accessible flexible working policy can be seen to pay for itself several times over.

Worklife balance analysis seeks to evaluate and predict the causes and potential consequences of these factors and often has a bearing on the way that a given client approaches a workplace design or workstyle culture issue.

There are often small and seemingly insignificant changes that can result in major improvements. The prime requirement is to identify these key elements.

Peoplespace specialise in this analytical approach to workplace and workstyle developments and would be delighted to offer assistance.

   Reductions in the average number of employees in the office may allow the development of 'energy efficiency' policies, which involve restricting full heating
and full lighting to specified areas of the workplace at specified times.
