News

Global FM has announced this year’s World FM day theme as ‘Celebrating FM: standing tall beyond the pandemic’ which will be celebrated on 12 May 2021.

The purpose of World FM Day is to recognise and celebrate the vital work that workplace and facilities managers and the wider industry contributes to business worldwide. It aims to raise the profile of the facilities profession anywhere that its practitioners influence the health, safety, productivity, and wellbeing of people who use the built environment. 

IWFM CEO Linda Hausmanis said of the announcement:

‘The past year has seen our profession thrust into the spotlight like never before. From enabling the mass transition to homeworking to ensuring healthcare professionals can work in clean, safe environments, maintaining and securing buildings though empty of people, and more, workplace and facilities practitioners worldwide have played a key role in the response to this global crisis.

‘As we look with hope to the future, we can be proud of the crucial contribution our profession has made as we explore new possibilities beyond the pandemic. We look forward to celebrating our profession standing tall this World FM Day and beyond.’
