ElectroNet Group - Prioritising people.
The ElectroNet Group, known for its expansive electricity industry operation - with over 300 staff in consulting, contracting and office based teams throughout New Zealand - has recently made a powerful move towards supporting healthier commuting options for its team.
The initiative was sparked by the curiosity and swift action of Brad Rooney, General Manager at ElectroNet Consulting. Brad discovered Workride and promptly shared the information with the executive management team. In just one week from initial discussions, the ElectroNet Group were fully onboard, and ready to roll out the Workride benefit scheme to their employees.
Robyn Scott as General Manager of People, Safety, and Corporate Affairs at Westpower/ElectroNet added momentum to this initiative. Tasked with exploring and executing the Workride program across multiple offices and subsidiaries, Robyn and her team, with seamless support from Workride, successfully implemented the scheme within an astonishing timeframe of just one week. The first ride benefit was claimed by a team member shortly thereafter, marking quick uptake and enthusiasm for the program.
Chief Executive Peter Armstrong comments “Workride has been extremely supportive in rolling out the benefit scheme for our team. Their insights on how other companies have successfully integrated the scheme were invaluable. The response from our team has been overwhelmingly positive. It's clear they're excited to be part of this programme. The programme not only compliments our approach to employee wellbeing, but also aligns with our promotion of sustainability solutions”.
