Work related stress is real. Sickdays per employee cost 152€ per day or up to 2799€ yearly. (18 days)
Plants can change that,
and it's backed by science.
Plants increase productivity, energy levels and team spirit.
Work performed under the influence of ornamental plants is of higher quality and completed with higher accuracy as well as a feeling of vitality, increasing their energy levels and making them feel more animated. Plants also increase the feelings of compassion.
Happy and engaged employees help to decrease turnover.
Highly engaged teams are 14% more productive, individuals are less likely to look for a new job. If they leave they will leave with positive experiences. Companies with great employer branding have reduced cost per hire and less turnover.
Plants generate happiness and reduce stress.
Numerous studies show that having flowers around the home and office greatly improves mood and reduces the likelihood of stress-related depression. Nurturing plants reduces stress levels and gives people a way to cope with their negative feelings.

I'm thrilled that the Susteyn office farm became a permanent part of our University's community area! This gave us access to fresh and healthy greens, as well as the possibility to harvest and plant our own food around the clock. I just love preparing a fresh salad or mint tea when I am at Uni. The team's positive spirit and their ability to constantly tackle complicated challenges with innovative ideas are truly inspiring, can't wait to see what's next!
