The Baloise, a big insurance company
with its own bank in Solothurn, today has all employees via email
reminded that they also work from home
could.
One only has to discuss this with the manager. The message is clear: please go to the home office. A spokesman for the insurer confirmed the email in the afternoon on request.
The home office regulation has been known for a long time, but given the corona virus crisis, it is a good time to explicitly remind all employees of this.
Baloise’s offices are likely to be vacant next week. People will log on to the computer after breakfast:
next to the yogurt from the kitchen table, in the in-house office, in the children’s room while they are still at school.
Work-life, differently than imagined: Welcome to the Corona year.
In recent years, Baloise has enabled more and more employees to work from home, the spokesman said.
“That’s why the step to home office is not a big one for anyone who wants it.”
At Credit Suisse, working across the board from his own home is well advanced, in the afternoon at Paradeplatz.
The bank did not respond to requests until tonight.
UBS has home offices for the entire workforce in China and other affected regions. At these destinations, all employees stay in a cozy home; the feverish offices are orphaned.
Swiss Re has taken the same measure in China and at additional hotspots: Forced relocation to a private domicile.
That was not a dramatic change for the people, a Swiss Re spokesman said in an interview this evening.
Under the “Own The Way You Work” program, flexible and agile work for employees had been implemented for a long time.
In Switzerland, on the other hand, there is currently no nationwide home office, said the Swiss Re-Mann.
The same message from Zurich and ZKB: Home office is possible, but most would still work from the office.
The German Bild newspaper reported in the afternoon that the consulting firm EY in Düsseldorf had sent all of its employees home.
According to a Zurich source, Baker McKenzie, a global law firm, is said to have had a complete home office in London.
A suspicion has apparently arisen in both companies. At EY Düsseldorf, 1,500 employees now work from home, at McKenzie London there are a good 400 who move to the private office instead of the morning.
