How do you create a desirable working environment that enables employees to give their very best? Of course, learning and development, leadership and culture are key ingredients, but believing the workplace should also be at the heart of this debate, CBRE undertook a unique study on employee health. In a groundbreaking study, the University of Twente and CBRE explored the relationship between people's working environment and their health, well-being and ability to perform. The outcome exceeded all expectations.
