Hotdesking: Ramifications (01-12-23)
Adikesavan and Ramasubramanian studied the implications of hotdesking at universities. They determined that “University faculty, researchers and graduate students are increasingly working out of hotdesks, nonterritorial workspaces available on a ‘first come first served’ basis and cleared of all work and personal possessions at the end of every work session. . . . participants [doctoral students] work early or late to secure suitable hotdesks, perform important tasks in locations other than the study site, incur co-working space and home office costs, etc.
