If you intend to do a thesis internship with us

A key part of the internship will be a project around return to office and occupancy. The exact scope can be developed together, but topics could include:

• What are our current office attendance and occupancy patterns?

• What drives employees to come to the office?

• Why are certain days more popular than others?

• How can we create a better spread of attendance across the week, particularly Mondays and Fridays?

• What are other companies doing to encourage office attendance?

• Which Facilities initiatives could positively influence workplace experience and attendance?

• How can occupancy data and employee feedback help us make better workplace decisions?
