A study involving academics from the University of Exeter, the University of Groningen and the University of Queensland found that plants can boost productivity by 15%.

Improve employees’ concentration
Improve air quality and thereby reduce sickness absence rates
Reduce stress
Reduce ambient noises
Make employees happier and more satisfied at work
