A change that will leave its mark on tomorrow’s offices. In TIM we are already getting prepared.
12/16/2020 - 12:00 PM
In the last few months we have learned to work differently, more flexibly and fluidly. The expansion of working times, for lack of precise borders, the overlapping, not just physical, of work and family life, the lack of vis-a-vis relations with colleagues. Changes that have changed us as people and that will also change our surrounding panorama. Just think of the offices in large companies after this experience. They will be different, with less of them.
Once the health emergency is over, smart-working will be here to stay in TIM, and in lots of other companies in Italy; and it will allow us to choose whether to work in the office or from home. That is why we are transforming most of our offices into spaces conceived with a more current logic in mind, sized more accurately in number too. There are six cities currently affected: Rome, Milan, Turin, Naples, Palermo and Bari.
The new spaces will become increasingly more flexible, to manage all the different daily jobs more dynamically. The heart of the office will be an open space furnished for desk sharing; and then lots of meeting rooms enabling coworking, but also many areas for informal meetings, a lunch break or a coffee, where ideas can be exchanged, nourishing those relations that are an unwitting stimulus for our creativity and the ability to think and produce.
All this is a way for us to pursue one of our most heartfelt objectives: to be more and more sustainable, from any angle, in any activity we perform.
We are not just planning an office space and furniture restyling, but important structure and system changes that will lead to better environmental quality and a reduction in direct and indirect CO2. Using eco-sustainable materials and systems like intelligent lighting with remote control, regulation of the fire-fighting system, high solar reflection fabrics and curtains,100% recyclable PVC floors, are all elements to make our footprint lighter. Our offices will also soon have EV charging stations, one more incentive for moving around responsibly. This renewal process will lead us to apply circular economy concepts giving new life to furniture and computer equipment no longer suited to the new spaces and the working procedures.
In general, these new ways of working will reduce movement between home and work, and between one premises and another. We will accumulate less material that currently hinders more efficient cleaning of workstations and produces a greater amount of waste; there will be less need to move. Hence, less greenhouse gas emissions thanks to less moving from place to place and more virtuous behaviour in the workplace. Because the road towards living and working more sustainably goes through material possessions, like offices and infrastructure, but more specifically through people and our behaviour.
