Registers Own Space for WELL Health-Safety Rating!
While the COVID-19 pandemic is not over, more companies and organizations are beginning to bring people back to work, and life is normalizing a bit. Now more than ever, awareness of the benefits of creating safe and healthy work and living environments has become more prevalent and wide-reaching. To address both immediate and long-term wellness benefits, DCS Design has extended our Human Wellness Design™ services to include full-service assessment and coordination of WELL Building Standard Certification and WELL Health-Safety Rating.
This recent extension of our Human Wellness Design™ includes assisting clients achieve the WELL Health-Safety Rating and subsequent Safety Seal which focuses on operational policies, maintenance protocols, and emergency plans to address health and safety-related issues. Additionally, WELL Health-Safety creates an accessible pathway to certification and serves as an access point to full WELL certification.
Many factors account for healthy living and working environments. Humidity levels, air ventilation, temperature, lighting, plumbing, and accessibility to contaminant-free water are a few of the determinants affecting a space’s over-all health. Further, we spend 90% of our time indoors. By improving the health of our interior environments, we can reduce health care costs, and substantially increase productivity and attraction and retention of employees and tenants.
Also, what better way to show our commitment to creating healthy environments than to pursue WELL Health-Safety Rating for our own office space? Led by our WELL accredited professional, Joanna Adams-DeCastro, we have officially registered our space and are now diligently working towards the required 15 points to achieve the rating.
“It’s so exciting to be going through this process ourselves,” Joanna shares. “And we felt it was very important we ‘walk-the-talk.’ We believe so strongly in the future of healthy living and working spaces. Now having embarked on this journey for ourselves, we have even greater knowledge and ability to assist our clients!”
