What does the second section of the scorecard focus on?

The second section of the scorecard is focused on Building Access. This section evaluates how accessible a building is for its occupants, encouraging designs and features that promote ease of access to the building itself. This can include elements like entrance design, pathways, and the availability of public transportation options nearby.

By concentrating on Building Access, the scorecard aims to promote a welcoming environment that supports physical activity and enhances community connectivity. This focus is aligned with Fitwel’s mission to create healthier building environments and foster occupant well-being, as easy access can encourage greater use of the building's facilities and surrounding resources. Attributes such as signage, safety features, and the design of walkways also play a critical role in making buildings more user-friendly and accessible to everyone.
