To celebrate the milestone, the company hosted a wellness event yesterday, August 13, at its South Region headquarters. The day began with a live unveiling of the WELL Certified™ Gold seal by Debra George, Vice President of Operations of the company's South Region. In-person activities included chair yoga, sound bath sessions, nutrition education, tours, and a 'Build Your Own Healthy Bento Box' station for lunch. Each activation helped associates connect WELL principles to their daily routines in the office.

'This recognition underscores our belief that when our associates thrive in the workplace, they're better equipped to deliver exceptional support to the residents and communities we are proud to serve.'
WELL Certification is based on attaining exceptional levels of quality in criteria including air and water quality, natural light, ergonomic workspace design, mental health support, and nutrition-focused amenities. This achievement reflects a shared effort between FirstService Residential and FirstService Energy, the company's energy advisory affiliate, to design a workplace that supports well-being in real, lasting ways.
'FirstService upholds the same wellness standards in our workspaces that we help residents and communities achieve in their homes,' said Paula Allen, Senior Vice President of Human Resources, South Region.
