Work is changing dramatically. Where and how people work is vastly different today than it was even five years ago. More changes are to come. Facility managers and designers must address changes in the work environment and how those changes will impact on not only facilities,but facility users. Organizations and individuals are looking at a variety of emerging work environments including hotelling and homeworking. Both require a new way of approaching facility management and the tools required to meet these work environment options. A comprehensive view is required, one which takes into account technological, physical and the social aspects of work. Reviews agents affecting changes in the work environment and recommendations for meeting the challenges posed by those changes. Gives increased insight into the evolution and nature of work, future requirements and the effect this evolution will have on facility management and design professionals.
