There is a tendency to
underestimate the detrimental effect that renovation work in occupied
buildings has on the people who are working in those buildings. If you
have to renovate, it's important to go to great lengths to control
noise, dust and the intrusion of outside workers. These three factors
can bring your entire workforce down to about 20 percent output and cost
you many times the cost of the project in lost production. Construction
noise gives people headaches. Dust will clog your filters and ruin
office equipment and computers. Make sure tradespeople have separate
access and parking.
