YOUR BEHAVIOUR HELPS WORKPLACE DESIGN
While great workplace design can improve acoustics, and with it, employee wellbeing,
satisfaction and productivity, behavior is also a critical component. Here are 6 behavior
adaptations you could discuss with your team.
Speak in a low, normal voice. This is
easier when one can see other occupants
of the space rather than in the fictional
privacy of a cubicle partitions.
Schedule lengthy calls for
enclosed rooms with speaker
phones.
If you know you will need access
to a computer during a
scheduled call, plan to use your
laptop which can be moved
readily to an enclosed room.
Do NOT use speaker phones at your
desk in to open office. if needed,
headphones with voice Piece are an
acceptable alternative if the voice can
be kept at a normal level.
Avoid noise spa by closing
meeting room doors, especially
when meeting rooms are locked
adjacent hated adjace to the
open plan work areas.
