Working in distributed teams, with some employees on site in the office and others working from home or remotely, will become the norm in many companies in the future. This will lead to new processes and new forms of collaboration. However, hybrid working also places new demands on individual workspaces in the office and home office workstations.
As a multi-purpose space, the office must provide people on site with the right conditions for their respective tasks. At the same time, colleagues in the home office must also be professionally equipped. Last but not least, modern solutions are needed to enable collaboration between people in the office and in the home office. That's why today we're showing you products that should no longer be missing in any modern office in the future and with which hybrid working will be a success.
Equipment for the multi-purpose office
Modular furniture & multifunctional solutions
Quickly customizable furniture
Desk sharing is a model that is already being implemented in many companies. Instead of each employee having their own workstation, the available workstations are used by colleagues who are currently on site. This frees up office space that can be used for other purposes.
However, this also means that the workplaces can be used by anyone and must be able to adapt quickly and easily to individual needs. Electrically height-adjustable desks can be adjusted to the respective height in no time at all to ensure an ergonomic sitting position. Together with professional swivel chairs, which can also be easily adapted to the respective person, you can create flexible workplaces that can be used by everyone.
Professional video conferencing solutions
One of the biggest challenges in the future will be to collaborate efficiently with colleagues working from home. Modern technology can make a useful contribution to this and enable collaboration as if you were in the same room. Professional video conferencing solutions not only transmit in high-resolution quality, but also improve the experience with additional features such as a 360° field of view or automatic voice recognition that switches directly to the person currently speaking.
Equipment for home office and remote work
Mobile devices - smartphones, laptops, tablets
Employees equipped with mobile devices can easily switch between the office, their home office or the café around the corner at any time. All programs for work are located on the devices. Important documents can be accessed from any location via appropriately secured access points.
Which device is the most suitable should depend on the tasks of the employee. Apple products are the first choice for all applications where performance is important.
Ergonomic furniture for the home office
Even when working from home, a professionally equipped home office workstation is required. This is also derived from occupational health and safety, which makes no distinction between the office and the home office with regard to the employer's obligation to provide an ergonomic workstation. The minimum should therefore be an ergonomic desk with sufficient space and an ergonomic swivel chair.
