Commenting on the event the trust team said:

“With our learning from Covid the BCHC Estates & Facilities team collaborated with colleagues to embed agile working as a permanent change and improve the working environment to make it a really great place to work that benefited our colleague’s health and wellbeing. This would also be the pilot project for agile working, with the aim that elements of learning from this project could be taken to support our colleagues Trust wide.

We engaged with a company called Arcadis to help us take our colleagues on a journey that allowed them to express to us what they needed from their working environment to not only support agile working but also make it a great place to work that lifted their mood when they walked through the door. We listened to what they were telling us and from this created a vision of what the space could look like.

We collaborated with each team to understand their daily work profiles and patterns converting this into daily occupation figures that we could then use to map out where each team could be accommodated Monday to Friday and remain together as a team.

We then took all that information and transformed the environment to provide a space that provided the tools and environment for our colleagues to support agile working whilst improve space utilisation, productivity and efficiency”.

We are sure you will find this session of interest. Do note that places are strictly limited so please do book in early to avoid disappointment. Following the presentation and tour we plan to retreat to a nearby pub ‘The Sack of Potatoes’ (10 Gosta Green, Birmingham, B4 7ER) where drinks will be provided by IHEEM West Midlands. If you cannot make it to the presentation, please do book in for the ‘after-drink’s and we’ll see you there! It will be a great opportunity to meet up and catch-up.
