The return of employees to offices will continue

Employees in Europe are the least engaged on a global scale for a long time. According to the latest Gallup survey, the level of engagement on the old continent is only 13%, while globally this indicator is at the level of 23% and has improved year-on-year. However, the level of stress to which employees are exposed at work has increased. This is felt by up to 44% of employees. The home-office also achieved this with its less predictable and longer work schedule and the blurring of the differences between work and rest. Stress is associated with physical and psychological health problems, and can also lead to lower productivity. CBRE's latest CEE Office Occupier Sentiment Survey found that up to 87% of companies in the CEE region want their employees to work in the office at least three days a week. "At the moment, the physical occupancy rate of offices varies between 26 and 60%, while it depends on many factors, including the sector and type of company, the applicable home office policy, or the management's approach to managing employees," says Peter Gróf, director of CBRE Slovakia's Workplace Strategies Department.
