Businesses urged to prepare for the ‘Y Factor’


Facilities support specialist, Beacons Business Interiors (Bbi), is advising businesses to ensure their office space is able to accommodate the Y Factor – that is the current influx and growing influence of ‘Generation Y’workers. The advice comes on the back of research from Bbi’s office supply partner,


Steelcase, which reveals that,as Generation Y workers begin to replace the retiring ‘Traditionalist’and ‘Baby Boomer’ generations in the workplace, they are bringing with them a shift in attitudes and behaviours. Generation Y, also known as ‘Millennials’, is the term used to describe the demographic following Generation X, usually referring to those born from between the 1980s and the mid-1990s.
