The Work Environment

The work environment includes every aspect of the workplace  where one carries out their job, whether it be in the office, factory, school, college, university, yard, and site; anywhere that people carry out a job of work.


The aesthetics and finer aspects of the work environment can be last on the list of priorities for the employer, but be high on the list of priorities for the employee. Employees, especially those working full time, spend most of their lives in their working environment, so it is absolutely imperative that these surroundings are the best they can possibly be in every sense.

Our team are experienced researchers and are knowledgeable in environmental factors that make for a happy workforce, a healthy workforce and a motivated workforce; all things that will improve your company’s strength and vitality. We have worked with a number of large and small companies to help bring an understanding to management of what is required or indeed, needed, to maintain and/or improve the well-being of the people they are employing.    


The lifeblood of any business is its workforce, and our studies, which are undertaken within the workplace, looks at a number of key factors in the environment. We survey the workforce to find out their opinions, views, desires and aspirations for their own surroundings, and examine possible and practical ways to bring these about.     
We assess the environment across your entire business, and then break it down into small sections. Our team then spends time observing and talking to your employees and a survey is carried out which looks at a number of key areas; examples of these are:
 
Is your work environment a nice place to be in? 
 
Do you know your company’s Health and Safety regulations?
 
Do you have any special Health and Safety needs?
  
What are the shared spaces, such as staff facilities in your company/business?
  
What does your personal working space comprise of, such as seating and desk space arrangements?
 
What are the practical elements of your job?
 
What kind of light do you work under?
 
Do you feel in control of your working space?
