Workers’ expectations have changed.
Today, a competitive salary is no longer enough: people are looking for flexibility, autonomy and a better work-life balance. For this reason, more and more companies are introducing new forms of corporate welfare, such as coworking, which allows employees to access flexible workspaces close to home, reducing commuting, improving productivity and offering a concrete alternative to both the traditional office and full remote work.
With NOTONLYDESK, companies can provide employees with access to a network of coworking spaces, private offices, day offices and meeting rooms that can be booked through a single platform, without real estate investments and without long-term lease agreements.
Why corporate welfare is chanWhy corporate welfare is changingging
In recent years, hybrid work has become a structural component of company organization. Many people no longer want to spend five days a week in the office, but at the same time, permanent work from home has clear limitations.
Isolation, the difficulty of separating private and professional life, the lack of relationships and home environments that are not always suitable can negatively affect productivity and wellbeing. Coworking represents a professional space close to home, easily accessible and usable only when needed.
A benefit that generates measurable results
One of the main advantages of coworking as a corporate welfare benefit is its ability to produce concrete results for both people and the organization.
The most recent research shows that hybrid models supported by flexible workspaces can generate a productivity increase of up to 11%, while those working in shared professional environments record better performance than those working exclusively remotely.
Many workers also report greater concentration, better collaboration and a more positive perception of their work-life balance. For companies, this translates into more engaged teams, greater satisfaction and a reduction in voluntary turnover.
All the benefits of coworking as corporate welfare
For millions of workers, commuting from home to the office is one of the main sources of daily stress. Hours spent in traffic or on public transport affect quality of life and reduce the time available for personal and family activities. Offering access to coworking spaces distributed across the territory allows employees to work close to home, avoiding long commutes and recovering valuable time.
More and more organizations operate with employees distributed across different cities. Managing these realities through a single central office can become inefficient and costly. On the contrary, allowing employees to use coworking spaces, day offices and meeting rooms close to where they live makes it possible to maintain high levels of productivity without forcing everyone to work from the same location.
Many companies today are facing a difficult choice: maintaining oversized offices or giving up physical spaces completely. Coworking makes it possible to overcome this opposition. Instead of bearing high costs for offices that are only partially used, companies can offer employees access to professional spaces on demand, paying only for actual use.
A welfare program that includes flexible workspaces communicates attention to people’s needs and demonstrates the desire to build a modern organization. Offering coworking spaces, private offices and meeting rooms as a benefit can help differentiate the company from competitors and strengthen attraction and retention strategies.
