Your company’s hub is the one place you can get your team together and expect them to do their best work. Because of that, it needs to be a place that uplifts and supports every person who gets to work in there. 

However, there’s a lot of workspaces out there that don’t fit the bill! You need to ensure your team has a quality area to perform in, and there are a lot of factors that play into this. 

We’ve listed three of them below; check them out and see if you can tick them off the list. If so, you’re well on your way to creating a workplace that’s more than good enough for your staff.

Is it Spacious?

You can’t squeeze your employees in all together like sardines in a can. You’re going to need to allocate some personal space that gives every team member their own bubble to make use of. 

Even if you have no set cubicles for people to work from, there needs to be plenty of room to chop and change where they get set up for the day. Don’t cram furniture in, don’t cram people in, and think about the right working layout for your team in particular. 

Is it Clean?

It doesn’t matter how your workplace is decorated, or what level of ‘clutter’ you’re happy to operate with. Your workplace needs to be clean and tidy, with a pleasant smell in the air and plenty of natural light and fresh air available. 

However, a lot of workspaces fall into the dirty and grimy category, and often by pure accident. Things get on top of you and you forget to keep the floors vacuumed and the keyboards disinfected. But no longer! You can turn things around and create a more harmonious place to work for everyone employed at your company. 

You may need to invest in an office cleaning service to achieve this, as you’re unlikely to have the time or the energy to keep your workplace clean on your own. So instead, turn to a service that can work around your schedule and make sure cleanliness problems never build up again. 

Is it Welcoming?

A welcoming workplace is the best kind to step into. As such, make sure your office has a welcoming atmosphere to it, so anyone who comes in feels like they’re in the right place. The more you pay attention to the general ‘vibe’ that people receive, the more at ease, relaxed, and happy your team will be in the long term. 

To do this, focus on creating a company culture that treats everyone with respect, and be sure to take any and all complaints seriously. You should also assess how your team works together and whether people clash at certain times or in certain areas. Keep a close eye and watch out for signs of people not pulling their weight. 

So, is your workplace actually good enough for your team? It soon will be!
