What do I do if employees don’t like the new workplace layout and their workstation set-up?

When you are planning your new workplace, get the views and inputs from your employees early on so that they feel consulted and that their voice is heard. Continuous communication is key. Consider the logistics of the workplace both from an operational perspective as well as from an employee experience viewpoint. Make sure that employees are involved at all stages of the planning process and that they know what to expect when they return to the workplace. Regular meetings and updates about the new workplace layout could be a useful tool here. Remember that creating stimulating and pleasant workplaces will contribute to how employees work and how they perform.
