20 April 2022
This year, the World FM Day theme is ‘Leading a sustainable future’ to acknowledge the major role workplace and facilities managers have as agents of change in this area.
As the leading professional body for workplace and facilities management in the UK, we will be supporting this worldwide celebration on Wednesday 11 May and throughout that week. We encourage all our members to get involved and help us raise the profile of the profession and the work you do.
John Carrillo, Chair of Global FM, said: ‘As people from around the world begin to emerge from their homes and return to the built environment to work, learn, worship, and play, we are witnessing an incredible phenomenon for facilities management. With a renewed importance being placed on human health and safety, coupled with building sustainability and resilience, the facilities manager today has been thrust into the centre of the “Return to” conversation. This year’s World FM Day is special to me since celebrating the work of FM has never been so important to all peoples of this world. Happy World FM Day!’
We have created marketing assets to help promote World FM Day 2022 on your own platforms. We encourage you to use them on your email signatures and social media profiles.
