The Workplace & Facilities Expo (incorporating FM Ireland) is the country’s largest event of its kind, and is clearly focused on delivering a high-level audience of decision makers from Ireland’s leading national and international companies.
Enhance employee experience
The name Workplace & Facilities Expo (incorporating FM Ireland) reflects changing demands on businesses not only to provide functioning and effective facilities but ones that enhance the employee experience, improve wellbeing, increase staff loyalty and reduce staff turnover.
Managers have become more aware that it is not just the pay package that secures an employee’s productivity and loyalty, it the culture of the organisation. One which recognises their needs, stresses and lifestyle can make the difference in attracting and keeping good, motivated and healthy employees.
In this new era, rather than operating standalone departmental silos, organisations will have to create cross-functional teams involving senior management responsible for various functions such as FM, HR, and IT for them to come together to create and deliver the workplace and facilities needed.
Facilitating this is the development in technology, which is allowing organisations to adopt different work practices that enhance the employee experience. Whether that is through the adoption of remote working or flexible working.
The green agenda and sustainability, whether in reducing the energy use through the adoption of more energy efficient products, smart buildings, energy management.
Or by reducing the amount of unnecessary travel through flexible working, increased use of conference calls and the ability to log into the company’s shared drives and facilitating remote working.
Employee wellbeing is high on the agenda… As work is becoming more stressful and hours longer the responsibility of and the benefits of well balance staff, becomes more important.
Whether that be access to advice, in house health and mental health care or just a recognition of the needs and pressures on employees in the 21st Century.
