FirstService Residential Earns WELL Certified™ Gold for South Region Headquarters

Company commemorates workplace excellence milestone with an immersive wellness event for associates in their South Region headquarters in Florida

PLANTATION, Fla., Aug. 14, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- FirstService Residential, North America's leading residential property management company, announced today that its South Region headquarters has achieved WELL Certified™ Gold from the International WELL Building Institute. The recognition is awarded to spaces that prioritize health, safety, and well-being through measurable performance criteria and reflects FirstService Residential's commitment to cultivating employee-centered workplaces.

To celebrate the milestone, the company hosted a wellness event yesterday, August 13, at its South Region headquarters. The day began with a live unveiling of the WELL Certified™ Gold seal by Debra George, Vice President of Operations of the company's South Region. In-person activities included chair yoga, sound bath sessions, nutrition education, tours, and a "Build Your Own Healthy Bento Box" station for lunch. Each activation helped associates connect WELL principles to their daily routines in the office.

"Achieving WELL Certified™ Gold reflects our commitment to creating workplaces that support our associates' health and wellness," said Robert G. Smith, President, South Region. "This recognition underscores our belief that when our associates thrive in the workplace, they're better equipped to deliver exceptional support to the residents and communities we are proud to serve."

WELL Certification is based on attaining exceptional levels of quality in criteria including air and water quality, natural light, ergonomic workspace design, mental health support, and nutrition-focused amenities. This achievement reflects a shared effort between FirstService Residential and FirstService Energy, the company's energy advisory affiliate, to design a workplace that supports well-being in real, lasting ways.

"FirstService upholds the same wellness standards in our workspaces that we help residents and communities achieve in their homes," said Paula Allen, Senior Vice President of Human Resources, South Region. "Earning this certification required meeting strict criteria across all aspects of our work environment, which reflects the company's deep commitment to creating spaces where our team members can excel daily."

The WELL Certified™ Gold achievement adds to a growing list of workplace honors for FirstService Residential. The company was recently named to Newsweek's 2025 list of America's Greatest Workplaces for Mental Well-Being and earned repeated recognition from Great Place to Work® in the United States and Canada. These achievements reflect the company's belief that investing in associate well-being leads to stronger teams, better service, and thriving communities.
