IS YOUR BUILDING WORKING AGAINST YOUR PEOPLE?

We often talk about productivity, employee wellbeing and retention as people and HR issues.

But what if the physical environment is part of the problem?

Poor air quality.
Poor lighting.
Uncomfortable temperatures.
Unsuitable workplace conditions.

These aren't simply building issues. They can influence how people feel, perform and engage.

Join the SAFMA Gauteng Chapter as we unpack the relationship between Indoor Environmental Quality, people and business performance.

We'll explore:

🔹 Can better air improve productivity?
🔹 How does lighting influence workplace performance?
🔹 What does comfort have to do with retention?
🔹 Can the built environment become a competitive advantage?
🔹 And most importantly — what is the ROI of getting it right?

If you're responsible for people, property, workplace experience or performance, this conversation is for you.
