Health and vitality are important focal points within Interfilter Group. Research has shown that prolonged sitting and lack of movement can increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases. For example, people who sit for more than eight hours a day have a 74% higher chance of these conditions than those who sit for less than four hours and exercise regularly. That is why at Interfilter, we value the well-being of our employees and take active measures to support their health.
Fresh fruit provides a daily boost
One of the ways we do this is by ensuring that our employees have access to fresh fruit. Every week, an assortment of fresh fruit is delivered, including bananas, kiwis, and apples. This allows our employees to enjoy healthy snacks throughout the day and promotes the health and energy of our staff.
Moving thanks to sit-stand desks for movement
Furthermore, we aim to create a healthy work environment by ensuring good ventilation and by encouraging our employees not to sit for long periods at a time. For example, we have installed sit-stand desks in the office, allowing our employees to alternate between sitting and standing during their work. This way, we promote an active lifestyle and create a healthy work environment.
Exercising in our company gym
To encourage our staff to stay active, we offer them the opportunity to exercise in our on-site company gym. Employees can use this facility before, during, or after work hours at times that suit them best.
Cycling to work contributes to health and the environment
We also encourage our employees to cycle to work through the Interfilter bike plan. The bike plan involves employees receiving a contribution towards a bike and using it a certain number of times per year for commuting. By regularly cycling, we not only reduce the use of cars but also promote the physical activity of our staff.
Investing in health for a productive future
Promoting a healthy lifestyle and an active work environment contributes to the well-being and vitality of our employees, as well as higher productivity and satisfaction in the workplace. This not only benefits the employees but also contributes to a productive and successful future for Interfilter Group.
