We just completed the occupant survey, and the results are showing that many of the occupants are dissatisifed with the sound privacy. The primary reason is due to noise from other peoples' conversations or work. Does anyone have any experience on what type of action to take? I was thinking of posting signage as a reminder to the tenants to be respectful of other people working around them. Another option I was thinking of was to make the results from that question public, just to increase awareness that noise in those spaces is an issue. Does anyone have any thoughts?
Thank you.

I think both of those options are very appropriate and very well may be sufficient. Other more structural/intensive options could be investing in a white noise system or installing sound absorbing panels or privacy partitions.
