Description

The ‘Healthy people, healthy business’ project, launched by the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) in April 2021 brings together a cross-sectoral coalition of private and public businesses to identify opportunities to drive progress on health promotion and disease. This session will bring together members of WBCSD, Trane Technologies and other supporting companies to discuss outcomes, strategies and insights revealed in the coalition’s first report, “Embedding a culture of employee health and wellbeing”. (Jan. 2022 pub date) CRE plays a fundamental role in helping business owners create spaces that enable a healthy, engaged workforce. A global study released in March 2021 found that investments in ‘Healthy Buildings’ were accelerating, with 89.5% of respondents – representing almost $1 trillion of portfolio investments in real estate – signaled their intent to enhance their wellness-related asset management strategies in the coming year.
