Bamboo palms, ficus trees, lipstick plants, pothos, and Swiss cheese philodendron, to be precise. There isn't a plantless office, room or open space in sight. People inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide, lowering the humidity and drying out the air.
Plants do just the opposite, especially after a watering.
Inforonics is a single, complete provider of outsourced, operational e-Business management in the emerging application outsourcing market. The influx of greenery is one of many recruitment and retention strategies the company has implemented to maintain rapid growth in a tight labor market. We wanted to maximize the employees' comfort in the work environment, and the plants have been an unexpectedly effective strategy. Mary Ann Bassett of Human Resources, who coordinated the plant campaign, said that employees wanted assurance about the humidity level and their comfort following Inforonics' move last October from an old manufacturing building, where they had control over their environment, into a new building with sealed windows, new carpeting and paint. Inforonics undertook the plant campaign, using a combination of hanging and floor plants in many varieties, depending upon their lighting requirements and the available light in a work area.
