May 16 is World Facilities Management Day

Posted by Facilities on May 16, 2018 in Facilities Management

This is a day to recognize the vital work that facilities management professionals do to influence the health, safety, productivity and well-being of people who utilize the built environment.

More than 500 people work in Facilities Management at Dalhousie to maintain our campuses and provide heating and cooling. They include custodians, security officers, tradespeople, the grounds and mail team, trucking, logistics, campus planning/improvements and new construction.

Dal’s FM staff are extremely proud of the role they play supporting teaching, learning and research. An annual employee award program recognizes exemplary work based on the kudos received from clients across our campus. Read about our good work here, and if you would like to recognize an FM employee, please submit a kudo.
