The last decades we have seen a shift in Corporate Real Estate Management (CREM) and Facilities Management (FM) from a primary focus on cost reduction to a growing awareness of the added value of CREM and FM. Two books on respectively The Added Value of FM: Concepts, Findings and Perspectives (Jensen, van der Voordt and Coenen, eds., 2012) and FM and CREM as Value Drivers: how to manage and measure adding value (Jensen and Van der Voordt, eds., 2017) have shown that added value and value adding management have become common issues in decision making processes in practice and in academic research. One of the possible added values of appropriate buildings, facilities and services is their contribution to employees' health and wellbeing.Important questions are for instance: what are relevant physical and behavioral characteristics of healthy workplaces? How to manage healthy workplaces? How to measure which interventions result in increased health and wellbeing? Are there any positive or negative side effects? Are the WELL standard and Happy Building Index reliable and valid assessment tools that can also be used ex ante to support the design and management of healthy work environments?
