In the meantime there are many technical, structural and interior design possibilities to control the acoustics in a modern office. In addition, the behaviour of the employees has to be attuned to the spatial conditions with the help of the office policy.

Improvements as a result of creative measures:

• improvement of the reverberation period
• active containment or reduction of noise sources in the office
• setting up measures for improving room acoustics
• improvement of speech intelligibility
• commissioning a room acoustician to do tests

Improvements as a result of co-ordination of the office policy with the acoustic requirements:

• conversation level of the employees
• work attitude of the employees
• disturbing technical noises
