5 Ways Officely Helps to Increase Office Attendance
You don’t need to do all of the hard work when it comes to increasing office attendance. Here’s how Officely can help you:
1. Give Employees a Reason to Attend with Office Extras
You can book more than desks within Officely! Office Extras allow your employees to book other work-related activities.
Admins can manage Office Extras so employees can see what’s happening when they book to come in. From lunches to dogs, give people a reason to come into the office outside of their work.

2. Offer Attendance Visibility with Officely FM
Let’s face it, if your favorite work colleague is in, you’ll be more inclined to make the effort to go into the office.
Officely FM sends out a message to your chosen Slack channel to let people know who’s booked into the office for the next day. This prompts others to book in so they don’t miss out on all the fun (we mean work) in the office.

3. Keep Employees Updated with Announcements
Whether it’s an office birthday, cake in the kitchen or something more functional like a fire drill, more specific updates can be sent out with an Announcement.
Anyone can send out an Announcement, and you can hit send on any open channel at any time. For those working from home, it’s no fun finding out that today is the day Peter brought cookies into the office!

4. Be Strategic with Data Insights
As an Officely admin, you can view and export attendance data. This is a great way to find out when people are coming into the office and understand what variables are increasing attendance.
If you see Wednesdays have 30% more employee attendance than Thursdays, center some Office Extras and incentives on a Thursday to help increase attendance.

5. Tap into FOMO with the Office Chat
What happens in the office stays in the office… or something like that. Office Chat is an Officely feature that enables anyone within the office to start a conversation between only those who are booked in.
It’s a great way to make sure those working from home aren’t bothered by irrelevant messages – but it also encourages people to come and find out what’s going on.
