White- and blue- collar workers' responses towards underground workspaces by Su, Ying, Roberts, Adam Charles, Yap, Hui Shan, Car, Josip, Kwok, Kian Woon, Soh, Chee Kiong, Christopoulos, George I.

“…Modern technologies have enabled the development of high quality work environments in underground spaces (UGS).Yet, the fundamental issue of whether UGS are suitable for people intensive functions, such as office or manual work, is largely not well understood. Here, we examine whether full-time white collar (office [WCW]) and blue collar (mostly manual [BCW]) workers of UGS have different responses to critical organizational variables when compared to similar workers of aboveground spaces (AGS). …”
