Workshop on constructing a healthy workplace

How can we build a healthy work environment with effective energy management measures? A workshop on these topics was held in November 2018 under the Green PolyU Awards – Green Office programme Phase 3. The workshop speaker invited all attending participants to consider performing a carbon audit to measure and record the sources of energy usage and carbon emissions in the workplace. The audit result will help in creating an energy efficient office. Also, the speaker examined how a desirable physical work environment can be achieved by maintaining a healthy workplace, and cast light on office safety and handling of work stress. Participants also had the opportunity to make their unique glass bottle garden and bring a little greenery into their offices as well as a positive change in the psychosocial working environment.
