Hybrid work haven

• With the pandemic came remote working. Some companies have maintained this arrangement, while others are adapting to a hybrid model where employees work in the office a few days a week.
• The focus is shifting towards creating work environments that prioritize both productivity and employee well-being. It is crucial for businesses to understand this as 2 in 5 Malaysians may quit if required to work more in the office.
• Stepping in to help businesses achieve this is 500-backed co-working space WORQ. Acknowledging that every company has unique needs and aspirations, the team offers tailor-made office solutions.
• One such space is Menara UOA Bangsar, where the team recently expanded from 15,000 square feet to 32,500 square feet, which has already achieved 100% occupancy a month before the official launch.
• From the get-go, WORQ collaborates closely with clients to have a deep understanding of their business objectives and workplace preferences. This partnership ensures that the final workplace design aligns perfectly with the company’s cultures, values, and operational requirements.
• Some of the office features that WORQ can help clients create are ergonomically-designed furniture, wellness features like a games room and a mothers’ room, state-of-the-art video conferencing tools and a seamless meeting room and hotdesk booking system.
• What’s more, the team also strives to minimize their environmental impact by adopting energy-efficient light fittings, remote-controlled lighting, and smart AC switches. They also deliberately select overstocked materials for renovation to minimize waste.
