When your staff is happy; they are more productive. However, ensuring that staff are always happy and content can be difficult for many businesses, especially when operating from traditional office spaces. Working in enclosed cubicles create an isolated work environment, resulting in staff feeling ‘disconnected’ from their co-workers and the job itself.

So, how exactly do coworking in Brisbane providers offer an affordable and beneficial alternative to working in a cramped office cubicle for your staff?

A connected work environment

According to Safe Work Australia, 2018 saw over 7, 000 Australian workers suffer from job burnout due to a loss of enthusiasm and motivation, mental exhaustion and stress. Working alone while trying to manage their daily tasks can leave your staff feeling disconnected from their work environment.

When working in a coworking space, your staff will be working alongside other like-minded professionals. By breaking down the isolating cubicle walls and working in an open and shared environment, staff can socialise and network to create lasting relationships. They will no longer come into work and immediately tuck themselves into a corner, hidden from the rest of the workplace.

Seamless communication

With traditional office spaces, issues such as job burnout can slip through the cracks due to reasons such as internal politics and staff not being comfortable with discussing or bringing up certain issues in large office spaces. Having to travel to another floor or office just to speak to the right person can be daunting for some staff members.

Business centres that offer coworking Brisbane services change this by having staff work alongside each other. Staff members can simply lean over to the person they need to speak to, and many coworking providers host monthly events as well. This can include workshops, talks from industry professionals and social networking events to ensure that everyone’s voice is heard.

A home away from home

There are many coworking spaces in Brisbane that focus on creating a work environment that feels more like a home away from home, rather than an office. This can include modern kitchen fitouts that are serviced with flavoured filtered water, selections of tea and barista-quality coffee machines.

Rather than harsh fluorescent lighting, coworking spaces have natural lighting due to each floor providing panoramic views of the surrounding Brisbane CBD skyline. Outdoor breakout spaces provide the ideal spot to relax during their break, ensuring your staff are fully recharging their batteries and staying productive.

Helping to better balance home and work-life

It can be very demotivating for staff after finishing work to have to walk 20 minutes to the nearest train station to then begin travelling home. As coworking spaces are located in prestigious CBD locations, each shared office space is within walking distance to train, taxi and bus stops.

If staff feel like celebrating the end of the week, there are always a wide variety of pubs, restaurants and entertainment spots nearby.

Benefit from a happier and more productive workforce by searching online for a coworking Brisbane provider and explore your options today.
