Abstract |
|
In this study we explored the influence of Green Workplace Design (GWD) on employee engagement and productivity within the Jordanian public sector. Through surveying 360 participants working in designated GWD buildings, we utilized the Employee Productivity Scale, Employee Engagement Scale, and Green Workplace Design Scale. Our findings indicate a significant positive impact of GWD on both employee engagement (35.2% increase) and productivity (45.5% increase). Interestingly, while heightened employee engagement initially correlated with decreased productivity (19.7% decrease), GWD emerged as a mediating factor, fostering focused and versatile spaces for engagement. This underscores the value of creating work environments that optimize employee well-being, fostering collaboration, knowledge-sharing, and innovation. Importantly, in regions like Jordan with limited light supply and inadequately designed public sector buildings, the implementation of GWD could revolutionize organizational performance, strengthening workplace relationships and communication.
