Plants in the workplace
- Keep the air we breathe clean
- We complain less of minor ailments
- We take less days sick i.e. less absenteeism
- Aid concentration – particularly for computer users
- Improve productivity as much as 12%
- Stimulate creativity and flexible solutions to solve problems
- Reduce stress
- Create a green calming oasis
- Reduce noise levels, reducing the need for expensive (and often ugly) acoustic panels
- Plant screens and plant barriers can be an effective alternative to partitions or ranks of filing cabinets and improve air quality
- Reduce dust levels
- Keep the atmosphere more comfortable (humidity levels)
- Can be used to save energy
- In USA Green Plants for Green Buildings has introduced LEED – a standard classification for the inclusion of plants in eco builds.
- Plants naturally extract carbon dioxide and replace it with oxygen thus reducing carbon dioxide concentrations and increasing oxygen levels.
- Interior landscaping can provide substitute views where office workers have no access to exterior views and may thus counteract some of the problems associated with SAD syndrome.
- Existing buildings can be made more sustainable with plants without the need for large-scale capital expenditure.
...and they look welcoming and professional!
