The new office is designed to promote sustainability, inclusivity, and employee well-being. The layout accommodates different work styles with flexible workspaces and ergonomic furniture. Natural elements, fitness facilities, and spaces for relaxation and mindfulness activities will help improve employee well-being and health. Employees can experience a digitally-enabled, hybrid workspace featuring flexible and technology-integrated meeting spaces, dedicated collaboration zones, and multi-functional event spaces.
The office design has facilities for people with disabilities, including wheelchair accessibility, adjustable desks, accessible restroom facilities, and tactile signage and braille labels for people with impaired vision. Gender-neutral restrooms alongside traditional ones and parental support facilities for nursing mothers ensure adequate amenities and a safe, inclusive environment.
The new workspace has been designed to maximize energy efficiency by using natural lighting, energy-efficient fixtures and heating, ventilation and air-conditioning systems.
Implementing smart technology like motion sensors and using environment-friendly materials that align with Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) guidelines help to further optimize energy usage. A comprehensive waste management system has been implemented to minimize landfill waste and efficient ventilation systems, air filters and indoor plants ensure good indoor air quality.
