About the report

We wanted to improve our understanding of what knowledge workers and other professionals think about the physical workspace and what role it plays in their motivation, productivity, and well-being. On the other hand, we also wanted to have a closer look at how companies today are working strategically with the workspace to fit the needs of their teams and fuel their future growth. And that is how the Future Workspace 2022 report was born. 

The Future Workspace 2022 report is produced by Epicenter Helsinki and conducted by Reflect based in Stockholm. 

More than 1000 office workers participated in the web panel questionnaire in August 2022. The target group was office workers aged 30-60 working in the private sector located in or near the city of Helsinki. The respondents have worked in smaller or bigger offices for years or decades.

The report also includes comments of four CEOs and directors on workplace strategies and how they deal with these issues. The qualitative study has been done in the form of in-depth interviews in digital meetings. The following companies have provided comments on how they work strategically with the workplace:

DNA. A Finnish telecommunications group that provides voice, data and TV services for customers and consumers. DNA employs approximately 1,600 people all over Finland

Huuuge Games. International games developer and publisher focused on the mobile gaming market. Huuuge has close to 600 employees working internationally.
