What is a green workplace?

A green workplace is typically defined as a type of real estate that is significantly trying to reduce their ecological footprint to our environment. This may involve things such as significant recycling efforts, utilising efficient energy resources, using recycled water in bathrooms and many more.

However, there is so much more to it than that which can have a real impact on your employees wellbeing. A green workplace not only involves reducing their environmental impact but also should focus on how these eco-friendly and holistic approaches can enhance work culture and ultimately improve your employees work habits and productivity levels. Studies have shown that green offices can improve job satisfaction levels which has a direct impact on employee retention, productivity and innovation and reducing sick days, therefore increasing your ROI per employee.

Future of workplace sustainability

As mentioned in our previous post, Covid has forced us to rethink the workplace and perhaps a little earlier than we would have initially. Where some employees are proving they can be efficient working from home, the purpose of the workplace needs to adapt to suit their staff’s needs - whilst it may seem more lucrative to have remote staff, it is proven that employee innovation and productivity levels are higher when working collectively as a team in a face-to-face environment.

Adopting the right collaborative tools to ensure employee wellbeing and morale is high, is key to ensure office sustainability and a more successful team. The future office needs to be inclusive, whether that’s through dedicated social areas and a collaborative office design to support our needs. Or the right technology that can help inspire teamwork and innovation.

Companies that had already integrated sustainability into their workplace strategy prior to the pandemic, were much more prepared in responding to this unexpected event and have since then focused even more strongly on this.

Office sustainability may have seemed like a thing of the future, but the future is already here.

“What creates a positive, motivating experience at work? Mainly, it's the meaning and growth people find in the work itself—and to improve that, the entire organization has to be involved.”

Thinking back over your working week, how much time have you spent outside? The majority of our working, social and cultural lives are spent indoors; whether it’s tapping away at our keyboard hunched over a desk, sitting on the underground commuting to work, driving across town or flying across continents, relaxing with a glass of wine in front of Netflix or snatching some brief sleep at the end of the day.

Could a bit more time in nature increase your productivity?
Outdoor activity offers many benefits which can be traced back to our physiological predisposition as hunter-gatherers. This powerful dual combination of spending time in nature and gentle movement initiates numerous biochemical and physiological changes throughout your entire body by:
Improving blood flow to provide oxygen, glucose and metabolic products to the cells; and remove toxic electrons from the cells
Enriching cardiovascular and immune system so decreases the risk for heart disease, stroke and diabetes
Strengthening muscles and bones to improve strength and balance
Aligning your circadian rhythm and reboots our body clock
Increasing Vitamin D absorption
Helping to regulate appetite

Make outdoor time part of your daily routine.

Walking out the door on Friday morning is like leaving for vacation. There's only eight hours between you and the weekend, so you're ready to take on anything. Everyone around you seems to be in a better mood, but maybe it's just because you have a different attitude than the rest of the workweek. But who cares? ! Here are a few reasons Friday's are our favourite day.

Dress up— or dress it down. Whether you keep it casual or classy, Friday's are usually a day where your wardrobe can represent the real you!
Indulge: You've worked hard all week, which justifies indulging in something special. We all look forward to that Friday afternoon treat, sweet or savoury.
Weekend plans: Even if you don't have big plans, you're already working through your weekend schedule before 9 a.m. Friday morning.
Nothing seems as bad on Friday: There's something about Fridays that makes everything feel right in the world, even the commute isn't so bad.
You're a bit willing to take more on: Fridays are the day for saying yes to anything, because you're just ready for the week to be over.
Friday night! Just about everyone around you is counting down to the end of the day, because Friday night is all about getting together with friends — or celebrating a tough week cozied up on the couch with a pint of ice cream.

Enjoy your Friday!

Rather than paralysing our intellectual imagination with indoctrination, we can evolve from the challenges we face in our life; expand our minds, seek opportunity and innovate.
