Workplaces have much to do with the organization of a work group, tasks that the office workers carry out, and the
structure and characteristics of the organization where the workers are affiliated with. Proper balance among them would
influence workers' working condition and could raise habitability. In the midst of an intense international competition of
an information oriented society, workplaces are largely being called for creative, intellectual, knowledge-based work. As
methods of business management and the communication patterns have rapidly changed according to the rapid adoption
of information technology, systematic measures with consistency that can properly assess organizational characteristics,
work characteristics, and work performance patterns should be developed. A quantitative evaluation, based on the newly
invented system, for the planning of a new workplace that can deal with change and expansion is in demand. A system
to identify organizational characteristics and work characteristics is introduced in this study. The study also provides
basic data on workplace planning by working on the interrelation among work characteristics, organizational
characteristics, and physical properties of workplace in a quantitative and positive way using the empirical survey.
