Work environment
A good work environment is a basic prerequisite for both individual well-being and the long-term success of the organisation. Work environment issues are always a central part of AF’s work. In times of change, AF emphasises the importance of a sustainable working life, where work environment efforts are systematic and collaborative.
A healthy working life
For working life to be healthy, several factors must interact. This includes good mental health, reasonable workload and working hours, a positive work climate, as well as present and inclusive leadership in a global context. Preventive health initiatives and management of stress are important elements in this work.
Inclusion is an obvious part of a good work environment. All employees should have the right to be themselves and be given equal opportunities to develop according to their unique circumstances. AF believes that employees should continuously be involved in dialogue about the balance between demands, resources and priorities, with the opportunity to influence their work situation.
Furthermore, AF believes that working life should be characterised by flexibility regarding time and place, and provide opportunities for recovery during the workday.
Functional workplace
The questions regarding hybrid work and flexibility remain important. AF believes that the choice of workplace should be made through dialogue, where work tasks, expectations, and both the organisation’s and individual’s needs are considered.
Office environments should add value, be adapted to the business and promote a good work environment from all perspectives. AF wants to see increased employee influence in the design and implementation of new office solutions and supports the messages in The Scania Work Playbook. AF also wants TRATON to adopt these principles.
The possibility to travel to and from work and between company workplaces should be simple and efficient. AF believes that there should be smooth solutions for commuting and well-functioning transport options between company buildings.
