Well-being in the New Normal

Putting the well-being of employees at the center: Health and safety underpin the transition to the new normal where balancing physical and mental well-being is more essential than ever.

Impacts on employee well-being…

We will work in a dynamic environment with continuous change.
There is a shift from an established work environment to a diverse partially unknown one.
We have to consider the coexistence of traditional and new ways of working.

That’s why we want to …

Facilitate participation – we encourage employees to contribute to creating healthy and safe working conditions. We use existing instruments, e.g. the Psychosocial Risk Assessment to help shape a working environment where mental health is safeguarded.
Enable self-organization – to deal with the demands of the new normal in a healthy and safe manner. A broad portfolio of learning opportunities accompany employees and managers on their way in the new normal.

How we lead, manage, and collaborate is changing due to experiences taken from the crisis. Trust, empathy, and respect have emerged as key enablers of our new work scenarios. The correlation of these values with the well-being of employees and their mental health is obvious.

Mobile working is increasingly becoming part of our working life, alternation between office and work from home have become a reality for many. To make this shift a success, we raise awareness of the health challenges and we support employees and managers in their efforts

to create a healthy workplace at home
to stay connected within their teams and
to enable individuals to organize themselves and take responsibility for their own work.
