The British Council for Offices’ latest report, Review of Post-Pandemic UK Office Utilisation, delivers a comprehensive analysis of how office occupancy has shifted from the long-standing 80% benchmark to a more realistic—and still conservative—utilisation rate around 66%. Drawing on extensive data and expert insights, this report offers essential guidance for developers, landlords, and occupiers seeking to optimise workspace design, improve operational efficiency, and align offices with the evolving needs of today’s workforce. It includes practical recommendations to support smarter space planning and sustainable workplace strategies in a rapidly changing environment.
