For the first time, Olivia Centre has obtained WELL Health-Safety Rating certificates for all its buildings.
What is more, 7 buildings of the largest business centre in Gdańsk retained the world’s first maximum score, obtaining 25 out of 25 possible points in 22 basic and 3 additional categories related to innovation.

The certification granted by the International Well Building Institute in New York is issued on the basis of criteria created by 600 scientists, business leaders, medics, architects, designers, government officials, real estate specialists, as well as standards in construction.
Its main goal is to verify the user-friendliness of the facilities, care for their well-being based on the latest technological solutions, but also takes into account the so-called
“soft criteria”, such as improving the quality of life and work, promoting healthy practices and initiatives to build an active and cooperative community of residents.
The criteria are focused on the following categories: cleanliness and safety of the workspace and common areas, safety of users and standards of preparedness in crisis situations, availability of health care, ensured high class of air and water quality, communication (internal – addressed to employees and external – addressed to all types of external stakeholders) and innovations.

– WELL HSR certification for our entire business centre is a very clear message for all its current and future residents: if you work in Olivia, you can be sure that the environment in which you are located meets the most restrictive global standards – says Konrad Danecki from the investor’s supervision of Olivia Centre.
– To be more specific: if you set yourself the goal of being in an environment that cares for your employees, promotes activity, health and cooperation, and besides, in the background, in a non-invasive way for users, ensures safety, stability of functioning and development, and supports residents in their initiatives for well-being, promotion and cooperation, then Olivia is the place where everything is located, what you are looking for.

Among the factors that prove the utmost care for the comfort, satisfaction, health and safety of people staying at Olivia Centre, there are initiatives implemented in the field of employee well-being, which include numerous interest and passion development clubs, seasonal projects organized on Olivia’s patio, sports sections, exhibitions of paintings, photographs or sculptures made by resident employees and a publicly available, year-round exotic garden, in which there are 4 thousand plants reaching up to 11 meters in height.
Initiatives that employees can use are appreciated, and which are unique opportunities on a global scale.
Certainly one of them is the Olivia Centre Choir, which recorded its first album and has already started concerts in numerous concert halls.
Valuable initiatives also include running clubs, cycling clubs, photography and film courses, and even plant care courses.
From the technical solutions, m.in were taken into account.
the technology of air purification with ions implemented in Olivia, thanks to which all surfaces of the center are continuously free of viruses, bacteria and other pathogens in the air ventilated into the rooms.
This is a technology that has previously been used in the world’s most prestigious facilities, which include the White House, the Presidential Palace in Abu Dhabi, as well as Gulfstream private jets.
This is done in parallel with raising the level of air filtration to the highest levels currently available and installing sensors for Volatile Organic Compounds and particulate matter (PM).

– Once again, we are convinced that commitment to the well-being of our centre’s employees brings measurable results – says Bogusław Wieczorek, the representative of the management board of Olivia Centre.
– The result obtained is a signal for a wide range of stakeholders: employees of companies that they can feel safe in Olivia, because we care about their well-being, and for potential customers it means that by choosing Olivia they can count on a number of added values, which are implemented with a view to the development of their business, supporting their attractiveness in the eyes of contractors and future employees.
The WELL HSR certificate obtained at such a high level is for us both an appreciation of our efforts, but also a clear signal for business that Olivia is the best business center where it is worth doing business.

– Implementing appropriate procedures and taking related actions allowed us to obtain the WELL Health-Safety Rating badge, but it is worth noting that this is a badge that can be obtained after achieving 15 points, i.e. meeting 15 selected from the list of requirements.
Our score – 25 points for each building – is a perfect proof that Olivia’s team is committed to ensuring that our buildings and spaces are conducive to the comfort, well-being, health and safety of users in the best possible way. – Agata Kwapisiewicz, ESG Officer.
