No longer do employees need to sit in the office full time to be efficient at what they do. In fact, some studies have shown that employees are more productive at home, without the usual distractions of colleagues. While it is more prevalent overseas, in Hong Kong, employers are beginning to reduce their office space or even close locations in anticipation of a long-term switch to hybrid and home working.
Of course, there’s a caveat — working at home isn’t possible for everybody. Some find it hard to work at home due to distractions (it goes both ways!), lack of essential office supplies and lack of adequate internet connection. This is where Metro Workspace comes in.

Founded in 2010, Metro Workspace by Metropolitan Lifestyle Group has given freelancers, entrepreneurs, small and mid-sized companies and corporates a series of coworking spaces to develop their interests. With eight locations across the city, you can be sure to find an office that is convenient for you.
Metro Workspace’s locations, from Central, to Wong Chuk Hang, to Yuen Long, offer a distraction-free environment to help you concentrate and increase productivity, if you’re someone who finds it difficult to work at home. Many of its branches are pet-friendly, great for hosting small and large scale events and all of them offer flexibility in membership (day pass, week pass, rolling contract) and room size (1-10 people) — a key to the success of the hybrid work model.
