Environment Audit

Do you think you have the perfect working environment? A comprehensive assessment of your physical workspace, organisational culture, and policies through the lens of longevity and performance optimisation. We evaluate how your environment either enables or inhibits employee health, then provide a prioritised action plan with potential ROI projections for each intervention.

Our audits go beyond basic health and safety to examine the subtle environmental factors that compound over time; lighting that disrupts circadian rhythms, meeting cultures that prevent deep work, air quality that impairs cognition, and social dynamics that erode psychological safety, plus all the basics such as brand of coffee (!). We deep-dive into the marginal gains to help bood your employees performance, to protect your bottom line.
