    Hi lads

    Just wondering about the size of an office for a 4 person team

    We have a small office with 3 in it and its tight and another person could possibly end up here. Its tight as it is with 3

    Any guidelines as to what space entitlement is, I dont fancy someone sitting on top of me or being right there beside me whenever tryin to go to the bathroom or get to filing cabints

    Thanks
    Ghogie

    Hi,
    the old Civil Service office norms were 7.89 metres square per person.

    I've seen desks in calls center that were literally the width of the keyboard and mouse and that's it. 20 to a table and 10 tables in a room. They shared desks, one shift left the next took over at the same machine.
