SAN DIEGO, Dec. 14, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- LPL Financial LLC announced today it has earned the WELL Health-Safety Rating for its San Diego; Fort Mill, S.C.; and Austin, Texas home office locations through the International WELL Building Institute (IWBI). The WELL Health-Safety Rating is an evidence-based, third-party rating that recognizes large and small businesses for efforts to prioritize the workplace health and safety of their staff, visitors, and stakeholders.
Adopted in more than 100 countries as a leading standard for building and operational health and safety, the rating is a roadmap for workplace leaders and facility operators who are committed to excellence in the areas of air and water quality, cleaning procedures, emergency preparedness, health resources, and stakeholder engagement. The rating signifies leadership in operations and enhanced resilience to potential health and safety impacts.
“Earning the WELL Health-Safety Rating demonstrates our commitment to the well-being of everyone who walks through our doors. Our goal is to provide healthy workplaces where employees can collaborate and engage with each other and our clients with confidence,” said Cat Cotman, LPL senior vice president Corporate Real Estate. “I congratulate the LPL team that worked tirelessly to create thoughtful and intentional workplaces that support health, safety, and productivity, while also considering sustainability and good stewardship.”
To achieve the WELL Health-Safety Rating, LPL has implemented quality standards and features such as cleaning and sanitizing procedures, health service resources, and air and water quality management. LPL Financial facilities were awarded the WELL Health-Safety Rating following the successful completion of a third-party documentation review by Green Business Certification Inc. to confirm LPL has met the feature-specific intents and requirements.
The WELL Health-Safety Rating consists of features from the WELL Building Standard, a global framework of holistic, evidence-based building and organizational strategies focused on improving people’s health and well-being. The rating, applicable to all space types, is informed by the latest research and best practices in facility operations and organizational management.
