Facility management: how using tpgBusiness simplifies your processes for better employee satisfaction
The role and influence of the Facility Manager is changing considerably within companies. With strategic missions, it takes part in the major issues of work environment management, as well as in the management of employee mobility. In this respect, if the company implements actions in favor of mobility, it is up to the Facility Manager to coordinate them and his or her mission can be delicate. Subsidies, parking spaces, travel passes... there are many elements that complicate the management of the mobility management process. To help the general services in this task, Geneva public transport has developed tpgBusiness. A free and easy-to-use platform that simplifies your processes. The result: greater employee satisfaction and less administrative burden for you.
Mobility in the enterprise, the importance of optimizing the process
Mobility is an important issue within companies, as it directly influences their attractiveness and the productivity of their employees. A company that is difficult to access is less attractive to new talent, and it increases the stress of employees who are forced to come to work by car, with the risk of traffic jams that this entails. Taking action to improve mobility is therefore crucial on several levels. The implementation of a mobility plan can thus be very useful. But what really matters is to optimize the daily processes..
Distribution of parking spaces, participation in public transport passes, car rental, etc. While some companies are taking action to facilitate employee travel, coordinating the mobility plan can be a real headache for the facility manager. The facility manager is responsible for managing mobility in accordance with the principles of sustainable development advocated by the company, getting employees to adhere to the systems deployed, reducing the economic impact of mobility and satisfying the needs and constraints of each individual In order to meet these challenges, it is essential to optimize the process.
