Coworking in India- Is It Dead?

 Is Coworking Dead?

When kings ruled the world, there wasn’t a Concept of a “day-off”. People used to work every day either
under their rule or to earn their daily share of bread and butter. Then times changed and so did the
concept of working, with most people getting at least a day off during the week, and better working
hours. This goes to show that change is the only constant and it is applicable even to the working
culture.

The traditional working culture is made up of a 9 hour shift with 1-2 days off during the week. However,
times are changing and so is the concept of working. With other aspects of life being given much more
importance than they once got, people believe that their time should be equally distributed between
working, relaxing and concentrating on their physical and mental well-being.

With that comes flexible hours and days of work wherein many people around the globe work at times
and on days that are comfortable for them. Unfortunately however, most traditional offices do not yet
encourage such a routine which is why they usually stick to the 9 hour working culture. However, they
do employ freelancers and other independent professionals to take up tasks that their in-house
employees cannot due to various reasons.

These reasons can be to maintain uniformity in working or even because their job role demands that
they work out of office itself, and during specific hours of the day. Say for example a company in India
has ties with a U.S. based company and needs their employees to communicate during certain hours of
the day, there is no option but for the employees to give their time to the company accordingly. Job
roles such as that of call center executives or engineers and doctors may need them to work during
specific hours of the day.

On the other hand, jobs such as graphic designing or content creation may not require an employee to
work at a specific time which is why they can choose to work in a more flexible way.
However, not everyone can work from home due to the various distractions involved which is why the
concept of co working has been introduced.

Co working was only seeing a growth in popularity until the covid-19 pandemic struck the world, which
is why it saw a decline in its demand. But that’s not because people had a choice, it’s majorly due to the
fact that most people were confined to their homes.

However, 2 years later here we are, where most of us are vaccinated and the disease has seen a
reduction in its escalation. Now, there are various facts to consider before jumping to conclusions about
whether or not co working is dead.

  •  The fact that offices and co working spaces are taking measures to avoid covid-19 such as social distancing and sanitization.
  •  The fact that majority places (including clubs and theatres) are open and most people aren’t afraid of visiting them despite the pandemic.
  • The fact that many public places demand a customer to be fully vaccinated before entering the place.

These measures conclude that co working is once again on the rise, because it still offers benefits such
as 24/7 access and other important facilities.

In fact, according to a research, the occupancy rate in co working spaces has risen to 70-90% yet again
as of August 2021.
