More than 40% of all office real estate on the domestic market is certified by one of the internationally recognized systems that confirm its sustainability: the British BREEAM or the American LEED. In this respect, the Czech Republic, together with other countries in the CEE region, ranks among the champions of the whole of Europe - the average is around 20%. Much has been written about the positive impact of certified buildings on the health and well-being of employees, minimizing environmental impacts and saving operating costs. However, one question remained unanswered: how is the certification of office buildings really reflected in their performance, ie prices per square meter of rented space and occupancy?

It is based on an analysis of almost 22,000 leases concluded in the last five years in 12 European countries, including the Czech Republic.

The coronavirus pandemic in the last year and a half has significantly affected the labor market as a whole, including the way individuals and teams work. With the disintegration and gradual return of most employees to the workplace, it is not only changes in the work model, but also the transformation of the offices themselves. CBRE, a world leader in commercial real estate services, has recently conducted two large-scale surveys to map current attitudes and expectations on the part of both companies and employees. Their results clearly show the emerging trend of a hybrid model of work, which effectively combines office work with teleworking.
