Optimize Productivity by Designing for Health and Wellness

Health and fitness are central to recruiting new talent to your organization, so amenities and features that positively contribute to wellness are key.

SelectQuote Insurance Services’ previous office had a small, undesirable fitness room, so when the company moved to its new 80,000-square-foot space, a larger fitness room with showers was an important component of the generous amenities in the design. The fitness room also features windows that look out toward the patio and green space. One of the break rooms is adjacent to the fitness center, and the two floors also include coffee bars, a game room and a media room.

“Happy employees produce measurably better results and report higher job satisfaction, so wellness improvements represent a win-win scenario: employees are happier, and the company enjoys both high productivity and improvements in recruitment prospects and retention rates,” explains Sara Ross, Director of Corporate Services at Dyer Brown.
