Energised, engaged, happier workforce

Happiness at work enables positive relationships and ease of working. Over half of UK employees feel unhappy at work and there’s a lot the environment can do to improve this. From natural light and materials, open, inclusive spaces and cheering, sociable areas, to embedding the specific requirements people with additional needs require to thrive at work.

Increased retention and attraction of talent

One of the biggest overheads faced by employers – getting and keeping good people. According to a 2024 UK YouGov poll only 17% of British workers love their job, causing a fluidity in the workforce that leads workers to increasingly want to move on and talented people therefore targeted by competitors. Where workers feel valued and enabled to achieve their best work in a high-quality environment, they’re more likely to stay, and that goes for the best talent in your industry.

Increased productivity

Since the enlightening Stoddart Review, the link between workplace and productivity continues to be a focus for forward-thinking organisations, with people-centric design trends implemented to improve productivity. Particularly in the UK, where productivity often compares unfavourably to other G7 member states. Workplace design includes, for example, green space and biophilic elements to aid employees’ wellbeing and work abilities and benchmarking indexes continue to reveal that between 64% and 86% of employees agree their workplace enables them to work productively.
