A perfect workplace needs to be comfortable and engage employees, beyond that it should be tailored to ensure maximum productivity. Recent Harvard research studies have proved that organizations have witnessed a fall in medical costs & absenteeism costs after they have started investing in employee wellness programs.

Creating a psychologically and emotionally healthy workplace for employees will help them identify and meet their health & wellness goals. At its core, a workplace that is connected, encouraging, supportive, & engaged adds gratification, happiness, and delivers highly productive employees.

eFACiLiTY^® Occupant Health & Well-being App module caters to the human health and wellness standards for buildings specified in the WELL Building Standard™, the leading global rating system constituted by The International WELL Building Institute™ (IWBI™) and also the Fitwel standard created by The Center for Active Design (CfAD) in partnership with the U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the General Services Administration (GSA).

Equipping your employees with a handy health and wellness app to monitor their physical activity, nutrition, environmental parameters and allowing them to benchmark their physical activity amongst their peers at work will enable them to move towards a much healthier lifestyle and improve their overall health & well-being.

There is a great association between environmental conditions and symptoms amongst employees who spend 90% of their life indoors. Poor indoor air quality has direct negative impacts on the cognitive abilities of the occupants. General discomfort, high absenteeism, altered temperament, dissatisfaction, and low productivity are other impacts and causes considerable damage to the health, thinking ability, and productivity of the employees.

Air quality extends beyond visible pollutants and some factors are harder to trace or feel like volatile organic compounds that can still hinder both health and productivity. And, that’s exactly the reason why knowing the indoor environmental quality is of the utmost importance now & eFACiLiTY® can be your great companion on this.

Whether your employees are trying to lose weight, eat healthier, or take more exercise, eFACiLiTY^® Occupant Health & Well-being app can be a great tool for helping them achieve their fitness goals.

Through integration with their activity tracking devices/apps, eFACiLiTY^® keeps track of their physical activity including distance walked/jogged, step counts, calories burned, etc., set goals, and also compares their calories burnt against calories consumed (intake) providing complete visibility into their health/lifestyle. The physical activity leaderboard encourages employees to benchmark/compete with their peers towards a healthier lifestyle.
