Manova Partners Announces Achievement of WELL Health-Safety Ratings for Several US AssetsThe WELL Health-Safety Rating is an evidence-based, third-party verified rating for all new and existing building and space types focusing on operational policies, maintenance protocols, and emergency plans. To achieve this distinction, projects must meet rigorous criteria across five core areas including air and water quality management, cleaning and sanitation procedures, and stakeholder engagement. The WELL Health-Safety Rating provides a centralized source and governing body to validate efforts made by owners and operators. It leverages insights drawn from the IWBI Task Force on COVID-19, in addition to guidance on the spread of COVID-19 and other respiratory infections developed by the World Health Organization (WHO), U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), global disease control and prevention centers and emergency management agencies, as well as recognized standard-making associations such as ASTM International and ASHRAE, and leading academic and research institutions, as well as core principles already established by IWBI's WELL Building Standard, the premier framework for advancing health in buildings and spaces of all kinds. "As expectations around health and safety continue to evolve, these WELL Health-Safety Ratings validate our proactive approach and reinforce our portfolio's alignment with best practices in responsible building management," Buildings receiving this honor include: One Union Station (Denver), 400 South Hope (Los Angeles), The Drinkwater (Scottsdale) www.manovapartners.com End
