Employees spend most of their work week in the office. So, the workspace should be a place where they’d be able to be productive, comfortable, and, most importantly, safe. After all, a company’s success is hinged on how its employees perform.

It also considers how humans function, accounting for their abilities and limitations, and applies this information tangibly in the work environment.
