In the first period of the pandemic, the health and safety of all our employees was our top priority, and by making all the infrastructure ready, we soon started to work from home.
We switched to the hybrid working model in September 2020, where the number of Covid cases decreased and became safer in Turkey. Our aim was seeing our colleagues physically again -caring social distance- to socialize and to remember our office, and to manage a transition to the hybrid working model in a smooth way.
We conducted a survey of all our employees regarding returning to the office. We started our new working model on September 1, by dividing our employees into 2 groups -excluding Sales Team- and scheduling a group to come to our office every week with health & safety precautions. We planned an enthusiastic welcome.
We reconsidered our new working model under the hood of “Balance” for health and well-being in our business and private lives. The most important topics conveyed to us by our employees were: Decreasing the number and duration of meetings in the remote working period & help them managing their work-life balance. We launched 2 different programs in April and May.
- Balance in Work & Personal Life
In order to support the wellbeing of our employees we announced Stay in Balance Program to ensure the continuity of employees contributions to the company, to support them in work-private life.
- Live Well Stay in Balance
With this program, we enabled our employees to receive the simple services they need safely at their home such as on-site laboratory service, without the need to go to the hospital during the pandemic period. We cooperated with the relevant health institution to provide the online Psychologist services. We supported our employees with our Dietitian service due to the change in eating habits during the period we were at home. We hold Virtual Sodexo meeting every Thursday with all Sodexo people including our CEO and COMEX team. We invest in our mental and physical health, development & fun by hosting experts on various topics.
