The last fourteen months have thrown our work routines up in the air. While initially, Zoom meetings were a novelty, not having to run to catch a bus, squeeze into a seat on the Luas or battle traffic was a relief; over one year later, not meeting colleagues face to face and the daily lack of structure has tipped the work-life balance. Starting the workday at a designated time and officially ending it is a struggle for many working from home not to mention setting times for breaks and lunch.  Routine is now a welcome solution.

A recent survey by The UK Royal Society for Public Health showed people who switched to working from home because of Covid-19 had experienced health and wellbeing impacts, with the most common being feeling less connected to colleagues (67%), taking less exercise (46%), developing musculoskeletal problems (39%) and disturbed sleep (37%)

Nearly half (48%) of people who work from a sofa or bedroom said they had developed musculoskeletal problems and nearly two-thirds (59%) said they felt more isolated from their colleagues.

We have a Work Well policy at The View and offer flexible solutions to maintain a work-life balance. Sitting on the water in the marina, our calming office environment is a short scenic walk into Malahide village. Our co-working space offers our members daily structure, while the sea air allows for a sounder sleep at the end of the day. A day pass will give you an idea of how the atmosphere in the building can inspire and reintroduce a routine into your working day.

This month we are running a special offer for €25 for a day pass when you mention this blog. If you would like to have a tour of the building to find out more about how our flexible office options work and how we can tailor options for your needs, ring us on 01 8456179, we are here from 8 am for the Summer.
