This is to help South African employees reduce their carbon emissions for the day by working closer to home.
Unnecessary carbon emissions, wasted time and loss of productivity are just a few of the negatives associated with a lengthy car journey to the office. According to the TomTom Traffic Index, a one-hour car journey in Johannesburg would take an additional 43 minutes during peak traffic periods. On a 30-minute commute, that's 96 extra hours a year behind the wheel, pumping tons of harmful greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere. By offering free flexible work space for everyone, not only is Regus encouraging workplace sustainability, but it also hopes that participating firms will experience the benefits of giving employees flexible work options, such as increased employee productivity.
Tips for employers considering offering flexible work options to their employees:
Regus is rapidly expanding into suburbs, offering those that travel into cities on a daily basis a second option, with the flexibility of working from a fully equipped, modern business centre that provides all the amenities needed, but closer to home. It also enables businesses to extend flexible working practices to their staff, increasing employee health, morale, loyalty and productivity.
