A report released by the World Green Building Council (WGBC) aims to establish a quantifiable monetary link between sustainable office buildings and occupant wellness and productivity. The report also offers a tool kit for building owners to realize financial benefits in their sustainability efforts.
"There can be no doubt that buildings have an impact on human health, well-being and productivity in the workplace," says Jane Henley, WGBC chief executive officer. "Workplaces that are good for people can also be beneficial to the environment and to a business's bottom line."
