Insight

The untapped potential of the traditional canteen

Empty, unused spaces dominate Danish companies. Or rather, one specific space does: the canteen. In fact, 22% of Danish offices have a canteen that stands empty outside of lunch hours. This is shown in a study conducted by PLH in collaboration with the research institute Norstat. It’s wasted space and potential for both companies and employees, workplace experts point out.

43% of women in Danish offices say that the temperature in their workplaces works poorly or very poorly. This is shown by a survey conducted by PLH in collaboration with the research agency Norstat. The result is hardly a new problem, yet office temperatures are rarely set with women in mind – and this negatively affects employee well-being.

Throughout life, we spend about a third of our time at work. Work has always played a significant role in our lives. But the way we work has changed dramatically compared to previous decades. Where there used to be a shared standard for what a workplace should be, we now see trends pulling in many different directions.

In a time when sustainability, resource scarcity, and climate goals weigh more heavily than ever, transformation is not just an option but a necessity. Transforming our existing buildings is one of the strategies to minimize the climate footprint.
