	AIR	Promote clean air and reduce or minimize the sources of indoor air pollution.
	WATER	Promote safe and clean water through the implementation of proper ltration techniques and regular testing.
	NOURISHMENT	Require the availability of fresh and wholesome foods, limiting highly-processed ingredients and supporting mindful eating.
	LIGHT	Provide illumination guidelines that minimize disruption to the body’s circadian system, enhance productivity and support good sleep quality.
	FITNESS	Promote the integration of physical activity into everyday life by providing opportunities and support for an active lifestyle and discouraging sedentary behaviors.
	COMFORT	Optimize indoor working environments through thermal, acoustic, ergonomic, and olfactory comfort.
	MIND	Optimize cognitive and emotional health through design, technology, and treatment strategies.

WELL®

WELL is for people. It’s interested in the connection between the buildings, where we spend more than 90 percent of our time, and the health and wellness impacts on occupants. Physical workplace is one of the top three factors affecting performance and job satisfaction. Personnel costs significantly outweigh the costs for design and construction and maintenance and operations.
Addressing occupant health channels resources towards reducing the largest line item in the 30-year costs of a building – the personnel – offering a meaningful return on investment.

CERTIFICATION LEVELS

Buildings are rated and certified on a scale of three levels

WELL® RATING SYSTEM

BUILDING - is applicable to new and existing buildings, addressing the full scope of project design and construction, as well as aspects of building operations.

INTERIORS - is applicable to commercial interior projects in existing buildings.

CORE – is applicable to projects seeking to implement fundamental features into the entire base building for the benefit of future tenants. It addresses the building structure, window locations and glazing, building proportions, heating, cooling and ventilation systems, and water quality.

COMMUNITIES – is applicable to district-scale projects. The rating system aims to impact individuals throughout the public spaces that link the buildings where they spend their days.
