Coworking. Coworking does. At least that's what the data collected by Asterès and the Flex Office Think Tank points towards. 540 desk-based workers were surveyed, and asked to estimate (on a scale of -5 to +5) the impact that coworking has had across eleven variables relating to satisfaction and efficiency at work.

Asterès then used data from five other papers to establish a correlation between well-being at work and productivity, and applying the resulting coefficient to estimate the change in productivity. Comparing that to the average income they calculated the increase in renumeration this would cause.

Other interesting facts are that for female coworkers saw their average situation at work increase by +0.63 thanks to coworking, compared to +0.47 for men (on a scale of -5 to +5). The most significant improvement concerns well-being at work which came in at +1.27 on the same scale.
