\u00a0Is Coworking Dead?<\/h2>\n

When kings ruled the world, there wasn\u2019t a concept of a \u201cday-off\u201d. People used to work every day either
\nunder their rule or to earn their daily share of bread and butter. Then times changed and so did the
\nconcept of working, with most people getting at least a day off during the week, and better working
\nhours. This goes to show that change is the only constant and it is applicable even to the working
\nculture.<\/p>\n

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

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

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

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

Co working<\/a> was only seeing a growth in popularity until the covid-19 pandemic struck the world, which
\nis why it saw a decline in its demand. But that\u2019s not because people had a choice, it\u2019s majorly due to the
\nfact that most people were confined to their homes.<\/p>\n

However, 2 years later here we are, where most of us are vaccinated and the disease has seen a
\nreduction in its escalation. Now, there are various facts to consider before jumping to conclusions about
\nwhether or not co working is dead.<\/p>\n
