National Workplace Wellbeing Day 2023

Today (April 28th) is Workplace Wellbeing Day 2023 in Ireland and our environmental experts here at Sonitus Systems HQ are ready to celebrate the occasion. 

Marking this event is important – particularly in the post Covid era – is important and it is a great opportunity for businesses to promote physical and mental health in the workplace.

Within our own organisation, Sonitus Systems has made employee wellbeing a top priority, and our commitment to promoting a healthy and safe work environment is tangible. Our offices and lab are designed to provide a positive work environment that fosters productivity, creativity, and innovation.

Through our range of environmental monitoring products (https://www.sonitussystems.com/), Sonitus Systems helps employers to improve the acoustic performance of their workplaces, which is critical for positive mental health and employee productivity – and contributes to ensuring air quality in and around site locations.

The AS180 Sonisens is an indoor sound level monitor that collects and analyses sound level readings to help maintain a healthy and safe workplace environment. It can be integrated into a building network to provide continuous measurements of acoustic parameters in any space. Its accuracy to IEC 61672 Class 1 and versatile features, such as frequency weighting options, fast and slow time weighting options, flexible logging times, and Wi-Fi and Ethernet connection options, make it suitable for a wide range of applications. It can help understand employee comfort, monitor sound trends in hospital wards, detect maintenance issues, and prevent hearing loss due to excessive noise exposure. Its rugged design and versatile installation kit enable discreet monitoring in any environment.

Also, the International WELL Building Institute created a certification standard for Well Buildings that focuses on seven categories to assess a building’s performance and support the health and well-being of its occupants. Smart buildings are facilitating this by addressing the physiological and psychological needs of people who use the building. The team at Sonitus Systems are proud to provide smart building sensors that monitor noise levels to maintain productivity and safety, as excessive noise can be detrimental to productivity and cause hearing problems. 

Increasingly, building operators are exploring various technologies and solutions to make buildings smarter, healthier, and greener, including monitoring and improving air quality, ensuring adequate ventilation, and managing noise levels. These efforts are important for attracting workers back to the office.
