Presentation ON Physical Surroundings of Work Place: Presented By: Sunaina Koul Mba-IV Roll No-2010

The document discusses how the physical surroundings of the workplace can impact employees and productivity. It describes key factors like office layout, noise, lighting, ventilation, air quality, furniture placement, and physical design that comprise the physical environment. An effective office layout centers shared resources and departments, while allowing natural light and air flow can reduce stress. Both open workspaces and private offices can be appropriate depending on the balance of collaboration versus focus needed. Isolation is a potential downside of private offices if interaction is too limited.

PRESENTATION ON PHYSICAL SURROUNDINGS OF WORK PLACE

Presented by: Sunaina Koul Mba-IV Roll no-2010

Factors Affecting Physical Surroundings Of Workplace

Office Layout

Noise
Lighting Ventilation, Air quality Furniture Placement Physical design Isolation

Physical Design

An open workplace environment that has few walls and features workstations that allow you and your colleagues to

see and interact with one another can create a cohesive


feeling and facilitate communication.

Progressive work environments often incorporate open

workspaces with minimal physical barriers that both balance


freedom from distraction and encourage interaction among staffers.

Office Layout

Offices that have centrally located shared machinery and group together department members in close proximity to one another increase productivity because interaction is easy. Employees who are spread out through an office and have to make lengthy trips to get to resources or to talk to department colleagues can decrease productivity and lead to frustration.

Light and Air

Offices that use natural lighting and facilitate fresh air flow often have more productive employees than office environments that dont.

Employees who can look out or open

windows feel less claustrophobic than


those who are situated in windowless environments with heavy fluorescent lighting.

Seeing the sky and feeling a breeze now and then can reduce stress and anxiety.

Isolation

Employees who continually work behind closed doors may develop a feeling of isolation. This can happen in office environments where confidentiality and privacy are vital to conducting business, such as banking, counseling or healthcare records.

While workers may have more focus in this type of setting, limited interaction also can affect the emotions and mood of the people who work there.
