Company makes employees work naked in Silicon Valley
Do you wish you could work in a company in a 100% nude state like this?
The "open" office trend started in Silicon Valley and then spread quickly to many other places in the world. "Open" here can be understood literally, when the office staff have been working in the nude for a month now.
Employees work in 100% nudity |
On the positive side, working naked has been shown to improve communication, teamwork, creativity, and directly increase productivity. However, despite the support, there are still many strong objections to it.
According to employees, they have actually been more productive and creative. |
The headquarters of Bold Italic has adopted a strange and unique dress code at the office, which is completely nude. The purpose is to create a fresh and comfortable office environment for the employees here. There are surveys conducted when managers found that employees working from home are always happier and more productive. And the answer is because in the office environment, they feel constrained, the atmosphere is too tense, causing them to "immerse" themselves in work to the point of "blindness" and not being able to find creative and new ways of doing things.
Employee engagement is also increased. |
Clothing: The Final Barrier to the Ideal Workplace
Before Bold Italic, business psychologist David Taylor had also encouraged businesses to have "Naked Fridays" to boost employee morale in 2009. Bold Italic took it to a new level by implementing this for the whole month, the idea was implemented this past March.
Layer after layer of clothing was removed, and finally everyone felt comfortable with being 100% naked. |
Of course, the concern of "Do the employees have dark intentions?" will be raised first. According to the employees here, "At first we were very curious and worried, but then it only took us an hour to get used to it. By the third day of working naked, we were completely comfortable and surprisingly, the connection between everyone in the company increased significantly, from there, we also worked much more effectively."
Let's exchange new ideas together |
The staff here also started to get closer to each other, starting by having lunch together instead of going out to eat alone. |
Currently, Bold Italic employees feel very satisfied and comfortable with this new form of work as well as the benefits it brings.
