The 2025 Workplace Occupancy & Utilization Index

The new Index is here, powered by 200M+ sq. ft. of real workplace behavior across 250,000 spaces and 200+ global enterprises. This edition uncovers the hidden patterns driving today’s workplace performance and reveals why offices feel full long before they hit capacity. 

Across global portfolios, workplace usage may look stable on the surface. But beneath the averages, new dynamics are reshaping how space is used. Activity now concentrates into sharper peaks, hybrid work is changing how different spaces are used, and pressure points appear in specific rooms at specific times.

This year’s Index analyzes those patterns in depth, giving workplace and real estate leaders the insights they need to plan more adaptive, resilient offices.

Inside the 2025 Workplace Occupancy & Utilization Index, you’ll discover:

• The volatility averages hide — and why planning from the mean no longer works
• Where friction really concentrates — and which rooms absorb the most pressure
• How hybrid work is reshaping demand across enclosed, open, and collaborative spaces
• The six workplace dynamics transforming space planning for 2025
• Regional and industry-specific rhythms every leader needs to understand now
