A hybrid workplace

When COVID-19 hit Denmark and the rest of the world, we had to adapt new ways of working. After spending many hours at our home offices, followed by a period of both remote work and office work, we realised that the opportunity to work from home enhances employee wellbeing and reduces stress and sick leave.

When COVID-19 hit Denmark and the rest of the world, we had to adapt new ways of working. After spending many hours at our home offices, followed by a period of both remote work and office work, we realised that the opportunity to work from home enhances employee wellbeing and reduces stress and sick leave.

The hybrid workplace boosts wellbeing

In 2023, Topdanmark carried out an employee survey that revealed that 91% of employees agreed that we should adopt a flexible work model at Topdanmark. This approach not only increases efficiency but also contributes to overall wellbeing. As a result, the hybrid work model has become a permanent part of Topdanmark’s work culture.

A successful hybrid work model is more than just the opportunity to work from home - it is also ensuring that both physical office facilities and the digital workspace are adapted and developed thus the employees can collaborate successfully, regardless of their location. Topdanmark focuses on physical facilities, IT equipment, digital employee experiences, and competence development to support the employees’ digital work methods and behaviours.




Facts

Topdanmark introduced the hybrid workplace during the COVID-19 pandemic, and today, it remains a permanent way of working within the company.

Key elements for a successful hybrid workplace

To ensure the continued success of the hybrid work model, Topdanmark invests in the optimisation of physical facilities. This includes creating good, modern, and inclusive work environments such as soundproof meeting rooms and additional meeting spaces dedicated to longer projects. Additionally, all employees have received updated IT equipment that supports work both in the office and at home.

Furthermore, Topdanmark invests in employee competence development to enhance digital work. This involves training in programs and platforms, as well as training in new hybrid rules of conduct. The purpose of the rules of conduct is to maximise the benefits of the hybrid approach, allowing us to make the most of this flexible way of working.




Facts

Daily, more than 40% of the employees at the headquarter work from home.
