How WELL Certification Pays Back: A Study Of 4 Buildings

Recent studies show a clear connection between investing in people-centric health strategies and enhanced business performance, increased asset value and higher financial returns.

This research shows that investing in health and well-being strategies not only benefits people, but also a company's bottom line.

As a result, real estate firms have been increasingly looking to incorporate well-being strategies into their design portfolios to boost tenant satisfaction, increase lease terms and raise their property value. 

The International WELL Building Institute, the organization behind WELL Certification, has conducted a comprehensive research review titled “Investing in Health Pays Back: The Growing Research Behind the Business Case for Healthy Buildings and Healthy Organizations,” which is free to download here.

The study summarizes major findings from nearly 60 independent studies, including research led by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Harvard’s T.H. Chan School of Public Health, Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, University of Colorado-Boulder and many more.

To highlight these benefits, Bisnow spoke with representatives from four projects that span the globe from Colorado to China to learn more about how WELL Certification can make a positive impact on the lives of employees and tenants and provide a valuable return on investment.
