Chapter In fuga dall’ufficio? Il valore rimosso del luogo di lavoro
Abstract
The experience of working from home during the pandemia opened up a perspective of radical transformation of work. It is no wonder that many employees, especially young people, are looking for companies that allow their staff to work from remote. Yet perplexities are emerging from the enterprise side, since working in person in many cases still appear to be preferable in order to create empathy and cohesion among colleagues. In particular, the traditional space for shared working – the office – showed its strong organizational and symbolic power and its capacity to be a gravity center for the company community. At the opposite, the run to work from home is involving a huge change in the domestic space and challenges the traditional separation between work and family, public and private which effects on families, working and urban lives aren’t yet clear.
