What is Activity Based Working?

• Activity Based Working is established by creating physical spaces that facilitate relative work activities. People then use the physical spaces that accommodate their required work activity, as opposed to having a fixed workstation.

• The primary purpose of ABW is to enhance collaboration, breakdown silo mentalities, provide workplace choice and enhance the workplace experience. It also introduces a work from anywhere possibilities.
