October 18, 2021 /3BL Media/ - Many employers are inviting their workforce back to the office, and it’s raised a lot of questions about the safety and efficacy of the workspace. The good news is that the building industry has learned a lot since the onset of the pandemic. When that new information is combined with pre-pandemic research about the benefits of healthier buildings, companies can make science-backed decisions that improve both employee physical health and create peace of mind.

In this episode of [Healthy Spaces with Trane Technologies](https://www.tranetechnologies.com/en/index/sustainability/sustainable-indoor-environments/center-for-healthy-and-efficient-spaces/resources/podcast.html), Joanna Frank, president and CEO of the [Center for Active Design](https://centerforactivedesign.org/board-leadership), and Dr. Alberto Acosta, executive director of Medical Services at Trane Technologies, share some key lessons learned - and a way forward for employers and employees. Joanna also spotlights increasing interest among institutional investors on performance factors of health and overall wellness in the workforce.
