Welfare: ASA focuses on across-the-board value actions

04 September 2024 - Corporate -

ASA focuses on Welfare by means of a wide-ranging plan which aims to provide value to internal resources and to provide then with opportunities to improve the professionality and quality of their day even outside the company.

“The project we thought of – Giulia Sossella, who has been heading the human resources department at ASA for over a year, explains – consists of a series of activities, services, initiatives and tools to assist our collaborators to increase their personal professionality and well-being. But that's not all. These initiatives also aim to improve internal relations, creating a community which is able to constructively share both the working day and moments of leisure”.  

Influenced by the skills acquired by the HR manager during her previous work experiences and by the requests of the ASA staff, a series of actions has taken shape: 

  • grocery and fuel vouchers
  • refunds for costs linked to transport
  • babysitter or caregiver service
  • purchase of books
  • school expenses
  • national and international travel for personal purposes
  • partnerships with some gyms
  • internal coaching support
  • comprehensive “prevention and health” package

“In addition, we have set up a collaboration with Fisiovan 8.14, an ASL-certified (Local Health Authority) mobile clinic for physiotherapy, where our employees will be able to structure a specific intervention plan after an initial screening of their musculo-skeletal condition. An intervention which may also involve instrumental therapy entrusted to some ASA devices which the mobile clinic is equipped with”.

The meetings for posture exercises organised at headquarters during the European Week for Health and Safety at Work in October also fall within the field of prevention activities.

Team building and self-knowledge

For ASA, Welfare means combining physical well-being with an improvement in self-knowledge and personal professional skills thanks to targeted courses and team building sessions. The “Insights® Discovery” course has recently ended, where 3 meetings, including one outside the company and focused on team leadership, enabled the 20 participants to compare notes, learning to work together effectively whilst avoiding conflict and respecting the individual character, talent and inclinations of each person. Finally, that training is an essential benefit is confirmed by the budget allocated to each department and destined to training or leisure activities for our collaborators. Objective: to team up and tighten the relationship links between the people that work side by side.

“We are aware that there is a long way to go in the field of Welfare, but these interventions represent the first important steps along our growth path”, concludes Sossella.
