Case Study: Staples improves office worker happiness with Arlington Research

Staples surveys 7,000 office workers with Arlington Research to reveal 81% say workspace affects mental health

Staples, a leading provider of integrated business solutions, wanted to understand the relationship between office environments and worker happiness. They partnered with Arlington Research to conduct a major international survey on this topic to gain insights into how workspaces impact employee well-being and productivity.

Arlington Research implemented a PR survey, polling 7,000 office workers across ten European countries. The results revealed that a significant number of businesses are failing to create happy work environments, with key findings showing that 81% of respondents said their office space impacts their mental health and 68% would feel more valued if employers invested in their workspace. The successful project generated substantial positive media coverage for Staples in outlets including BBC News, Forbes, and Sky News.
