Workplace Air Quality Survey Highlights Alarming Trends
CleanLink


 As part of its commitment to understanding workers' needs and concerns to better help building owners and employers meet those needs, Fellowes conducted its 2024 Annual International Day of Clean Air Survey.
 
Here are some key takeaways:

  • Global Perception of Clean Air
    Only 35% of all respondents across the surveyed countries described the indoor air quality at their workplace as "very clean".

  • Impact on Performance
    A resounding 90% of all respondents affirmed that clean indoor air is essential for performing their best work.

  • Employee Retention Concerns
    Alarmingly, 64% of US workers indicated they would consider leaving their current employer due to poor indoor air quality.

The Growing Demand For Improved Indoor Air Quality
 
Study findings indicate that demonstrating a commitment to indoor air quality through visible purification units, real-time IAQ data and status, and building certifications is the best way to assure workers that their air is healthy.

Amazon and Other Big Companies Require Employees To Return To Workplace


Starting January 2, 2025, Amazon employees will be required to return to the office five days per week.
 
In a recent memo announcing the new mandate, CEO Andy Jassy emphasized that the company had "observed that it's easier to learn, model, practice, and strengthen our culture," that "collaborating, brainstorming, and inventing are simpler and more effective," and that "teams tend to be better connected to one another" when everyone is in the office.
 
Meanwhile, other big companies like Disney and Salesforce have also pushed for employees to come back to the office at least four days a week, making similar claims.
 
Is the return to office really about building company culture, creativity, and productivity? Does it actually entail "backdoor layoffs"? Or something else?
