BASF
An excellent solution
BASF is one of the first companies in Germany to test and implement the health-promoting working environment ActiveOffice® by Eurocres. Health promotion is an integral component of our personnel management and our working environment concept. ActiveOffice® is an excellent solution for this. Eurocres is in turn a very professional partner in the implementation of our strategic aims.

Reduce premises costs, increase motivation
We are convinced by the comprehensive planning approach of Eurocres for an efficient working environment,by the promotion of health through increased motivation and communication . The LivingWorkplace concept offers our employees many work possibilities, all planned according to the Eurocres ActiveOffice®-Standard and optimised by all the functions that our company needs. In this way, we have created a feel-good atmosphere for our workers: The market places made available have been very well received – as have the telephone kiosks, to which our employees can withdraw to make confidential calls.
We have now gained flexibility and personal communication between employees demonstrably by over ten per cent, as the user survey subsequently carried out showed. Our new workplace infrastructure promotes innovation, reduces our premises costs and increases the motivation of our workers.

Increase in our productivity
We were able to find out a lot about our own communication habits at our Essen campus through the NetScan®-Analysis carried out by Eurocres. We can optimise our processes and communication procedures on the basis of these insights and have used them to create a template for a new more communicative workplace. Ultimately we can make a contribution to an increase in our productivity in the company with this.
