Haworth white papers: the right office design can increase the happiness of employees, whereas ping-pong tables, slides and even pay rises can't, according to new research by Haworth.
The findings are contained in a new white paper launched by the office furniture giant at the Orgatec workplace design fair in Cologne last week.
"Our research shows that there are specific design elements you can use to help workers feel happier," said Michael O'Neill, Haworth's head of research. "That's what the data is saying."
The report is the latest in a series of white papers by US company Hawarth exploring office design.
