Leesman, a specialist assessor of employee experience, and Delos, a wellness real estate and technology company, are collaborating to investigate how real estate strategy can better support wellbeing at work.
With a wide variety of strategies being promoted as a secret to ‘wellness at work’, the collaboration aims to test and validate the impact of leading real estate strategies on worker wellbeing on an ongoing basis, not only when the office is new.
For the first time, Leesman will include a special ‘Environmental Wellbeing Module’ based on a review and synthesis of research on topics related to workplace design, workplace wellbeing, occupational health, happiness, psychological wellbeing, and environmental stress among others.
The Leesman survey together with the module – the design of which was led by Sally Augustin PhD, an expert in environmental psychology – meets the precondition survey criteria for the WELL Building Standard version 2 pilot (WELL v2), and also offers some optimisations in feature C04 of WELL v2.
The results of the pilot, conducted with one of the ‘Big Five’ accounting firms and its 21 UK-based buildings in late 2018, suggests that even the highest performing workplaces within the Leesman databank have more work to do when it comes to supporting employee wellbeing. This places the onus on real estate teams and business leaders to focus on total human sustainability in addition to business sustainability.
Of the collaboration, Leesman’s Development Director & Head of Insights and Research, Peggie Rothe PhD, said: “Following the pilot with one of the world’s leading management consulting firms, we’re now canvassing interest from Fortune 500 companies who are committed to pursuing wellness at work. This proves health and wellbeing is sliding higher up the business agenda. In time, the results from the wellness module will arm businesses with the data they need to deliver their wellness strategies.”
Washroom and hygiene services provider phs Group has appointed Warren Edmondson as the new Managing Director of its consumables business.
As a highly experienced Sales and Marketing Director, Edmondson spent nearly six years at chemicals and ancillary product supplier Zenith Hygiene, delivering double digit growth year-on-year.
Following its merger with Diversey, Edmondson became its Global Head of CRM and Business Development Director for the UK and Ireland, rolling out its new global sales, service and marketing processes.
Speaking about his appointment, Edmondson said: “I have always known of phs and, now that I’m here, I’m proud to be associated with one of the most recognised brands in the hygiene industry. With a new CEO, phs is on a new mission to enhance the business and I wanted to be part of this exciting new chapter.”
