A recent Savills study highlights the key workplace features that Indian Gen Z employees prioritize, including flexibility, technology integration and collaborative design.
Savills, a global real‑estate consultancy, has released a study focusing on the preferences of Generation Z employees working in Indian offices. The research, commissioned by the firm, surveyed a cross‑section of young professionals to understand the factors that influence their satisfaction and productivity at work.
The findings indicate that flexibility tops the list, with many Gen Z workers favoring hybrid or remote‑first arrangements that allow them to balance personal and professional commitments. In addition, they expect workplaces to be equipped with advanced digital infrastructure, seamless Wi‑Fi, and tools that support virtual collaboration.
Collaborative and community‑focused spaces also rank high, as this cohort values open layouts, informal meeting zones, and amenities that foster interaction among colleagues. Sustainable design elements and wellness‑oriented features such as natural lighting and green areas are further cited as important.
Savills notes that these insights signal a shift for landlords and corporate real‑estate planners, who will need to adapt office offerings to meet the evolving expectations of a younger workforce if they wish to attract and retain talent in a competitive market.
