A
cubicle offers privacy to the person sitting in an office chair. However, this
privacy can also be seen as isolation. Let’s consider an example instead of an
explanation. The level of noise in customer support centers is very high.
Phones keep on ringing constantly. A customer support representative attends
phones calls only. He hardly needs to communicate with the other representatives.
Therefore, cubicles and sound-muffling partitions are necessary in customer
support centers and other similar work environments.
