WORQ, Malaysia’s leading coworking and flexible workspace provider, has achieved the country’s first WELL Coworking Rating at its newly opened WORQ Well in Aspire Tower, KL Eco City. This milestone highlights the increasing demand for health-centred work environments and marks a significant achievement for Malaysia’s flexible workspace sector. The 34,300 sq ft facility boasts high-end amenities, including a full-size swimming pool, designed to enhance member well-being.
Launched in 2024 by The Instant Group and the International WELL Building Institute (IWBI), the WELL Coworking Rating provides evidence-based strategies to create healthier and more engaging workspaces. The rating includes nearly 50 features across 10 concepts, such as air and water quality, light, and thermal comfort. WORQ’s achievement demonstrates its commitment to integrating health and well-being measures into its spaces, aligning with The Instant Group’s platform to help users make informed workspace decisions.
Sam Pickering, Executive Director at The Instant Group, commented on the achievement, stating, “WORQ’s achievement of the WELL Coworking Rating marks an exciting and important moment for Malaysia’s flex sector.” Stephanie Ping, Co-Founder and CEO of WORQ, added, “This is our most ambitious project yet, designed to help businesses attract and retain top talent.”
WORQ Well’s strategic location offers direct access to LRT and KTM stations, supporting hybrid and flexible work. The share of WORQ members commuting by public transport has increased from 20% in 2017 to 50% today, underscoring the facility’s role as a practical hub for modern work styles.
