Pioneering Workplace Wellness in Malaysia
The WELL certification evaluates workspaces across ten critical areas: air, water, nourishment, light, movement, thermal comfort, sound, materials, mind, and community. JLL Malaysia's office distinguished itself through comprehensive wellness integration including advanced indoor air quality monitoring with five sensors tracking PM2.5, CO2, and TVOCs, extensive biophilic design featuring natural elements and abundant greenery, and optimised lighting systems with low Unified Glare Rating (UGR 16) fixtures for enhanced visual comfort.
The office actively promotes employee wellbeing through 25% height-adjustable standing desks, ergonomic workstations with external monitors, and direct access to the 10-acre TRX City Park located just 650 feet away. Mental health support is embedded through quarterly awareness programs, annual training initiatives, and workspace design that maximises natural light and nature connection.
"Achieving this certification validates our holistic approach to employee wellbeing," said Jamie. "From advanced air quality monitoring to dedicated spaces for nursing mothers and comprehensive mental health support, every element of our workspace is designed to help our teams thrive."
Community and Inclusivity Leadership
Beyond physical wellness, the office champions inclusive community building, comprehensive DEI policies with transparent tracking and reporting, and thoughtfully designed social spaces including dedicated lactation facilities. The office food & beverage area promotes healthy nutrition with daily complimentary fresh fruits and vegetables, while varied seating arrangements in communal areas encourage collaboration and connection among team members.
The strategic TRX location enhances employee wellness by providing seamless connectivity to MRT and bus networks, promoting active commuting and reducing environmental impact while supporting work-life balance.
