“…perform. Of those on the performance of the space itself, studies on office types with different layouts have been the majority [15]. The term office layout means how the arrangement and boundaries of workspaces are laid out [16], which can determine the type of offices as well as performance of a space laid out in a particular arrangement and boundary.…”

Compared to 20 years ago, there are growing numbers of older office workers globally. Despite the growing importance of 'inclusive design' and a 'sustainable' research agenda, there is little knowledge of what the ageing workforce sector requires, and there is little known about the strengths and weaknesses of current sustainable workspace designs for older workers. This study explores ageing workers' experiences through a field survey of 240 office workers (ranging in age from 55 to 75) in three recently constructed sustainable office buildings. It investigates the sets of common factors in a sustainable building system that influence the experience of older office workers, and analyses the correlations from the perspective of the human factors discipline. This paper discusses the implications of the study on practice from Yasemin Afacan + two points of view: (i) the ageing workforce and (ii) the sustainable development of office buildings, and suggests a number of future research issues regarding a user-responsive workplace.

Alternative workplace arrangements (AWAs), enabled by information and communication technology, where employees do not have permanently assigned workspaces on company premises, are likely to continue in the future. However, facility managers have limited tools to select from among the possible choices in which the AWA type is more appropriate considering their organizations' business reasons for adoption and the current readiness condition. The aim of this research is to provide facility managers with an understanding of the decision process for AWA adoption and to develop a decision support model to allow them to select an appropriate AWA type and determine the anticipated satisfaction level. Using the artificial neural network (ANN) method and the case-based reasoning (CBR) technique, the authors have developed and validated a decision model to suggest the most appropriate AWA type given the organization's objectives and the current readiness levels. The proposed approach is tested by evaluating 64 real adoption cases from 19 large hightech companies. The findings reveal that the ANN-based decision model can provide an accurate prediction of the actual values and the support decisions of the facility managers responsible for developing workplace strategies to meet the organization's current and future needs.
