Applying What Scientists Know About Where and How People Work Best

“The idea for this publication is that originally, the Knowledge Management Committee of the IFMA Foundation and the IFMA Workplace Evolutionaries (WE) Community, believed in evidenced-based design and wanted to have a compendium of scientific

articles, described in laymen’s language, for professionals in the built environment to understand the latest research behind the impact of building design on human behavior. So, in 2020, in the midst of the Global pandemic, there was a need to update the scientific research of the previous publication as meaningful data for new forms of building renovations which would be designed to reflect enriched ways of working, and should be based on the largest scientific data.

It is with great pleasure that I introduce this publication to those who have wanted an update to the first edition, and to those venturing into the world of the science of light, sound, air quality, movement, performance and all the aspects of human behavior, and its relationship to the built environment, for the first time.” – Nancy J. Sanquist, IFMA Fellow, Past Foundation Chair

IFMA Foundation Pandemic Manual

Businesses are hoping to re-open their doors to employees and customers, but their buildings must be safe before they can be occupied. The IFMA Foundation has published a new pandemic survival guide for companies planning to open their facilities and resume operations.

A US $1 trillion global industry, there are over 25-million facility professionals worldwide who are managing and maintaining buildings. As the world stays home to help prevent the spread of the pandemic, the facility professional is working behind the scenes to ensure that buildings are operating properly and well maintained.

The manual was authored by Dr. Steven B. Goldman, an internationally recognized expert in Business Continuity, Crisis Management, Risk/Crisis Communications, Pandemic Preparation/Response and Crisis Leadership. He is Senior Lecturer of crisis courses at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
