Corporate Social Responsibility Report 2019 | Cushman & Wakefield

OUR RESPONSE TO THE CORONAVIRUS PANDEMIC

Putting Our People First The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has left an extraordinary impact on the world, and its effects are still being realized across sectors and industries. Our commitment during this unprecedented time remains to our clients, and to our 53,000 people who have worked tirelessly to continue to deliver exceptional service and maintain essential operations in buildings we manage. We recognize all our employees for their dedication, but especially those janitors, tradespeople and building managers who put their lives at risk every time they left their houses to ensure essential buildings were clean, safe and operational during the pandemic. In reinforcing our firm’s purpose statement, We make an impact , Cushman & Wakefield launched a Global Employee Assistance Fund, part of a $5 million commitment to employee assistance programs. Additionally, members of Cushman & Wakefield’s global management team have chosen to voluntarily forgo a portion of their salaries in support of frontline employees, and all employees have been given the opportunity to make a charitable donation to the employee fund.

Joining Forces with Well Living Lab, Delos and Hines to Advance Return- To-Workplace Guidelines As a Founding Alliance Member of the Well Living Lab, a Delos and Mayo Clinic collaboration dedicated to researching the indoor environment’s impact on human health, Cushman & Wakefield supports the advancement of science to generate evidence-based findings through human-centered research to be used in practical ways to create healthier spaces for people. While organizations all over the world tackle how to safely return their workforces to offices, Well Living Lab aligned with Delos, Cushman & Wakefield and Hines to create a comprehensive plan to study the design and operation of workspaces to help prevent the spread of respiratory viruses. Cushman & Wakefield is contributing its expertise in workplace strategy and design practices, including protocols for maintaining physical distancing policies and other concepts for returning to offices.

Responding to the safety and financial relief of our employees during this pandemic puts into action the words that define the Cushman & Wakefield culture: We make an impact. This is an opportunity to exemplify our purpose, our values and our commitment to our people around the world.

We’re pleased to continue our collaboration with Delos and the Well Living Lab as we work together to promote a safe workplace as offices reopen. Our clients are very interested in new workplace strategies that align with the science at the forefront of the fight against COVID-19.
