Since the beginning of the reconstruction work in 2019, very few parking spaces have been available for the employees. Therefore we started to look for an alternative in the field of sustainable mobility and will again provide our employees with e-bikes free of charge this year.
Last year, 34 e-bikes were already rented. Thanks to the continuous cooperation with Papin Sport, we are providing a total of 54 e-bikes this year, which can be ridden by the employees in Brixen and for the first time also in Mestre.
Some of the colleagues who cycle to work even cover up to 30 kilometres a day. Of course, the e-bike can also be used for leisure activities - especially in the summer and autumn months.
In order to cover short distances from the workplace, Microtec has also purchased company bicycles that can be used at the headquarter in Brixen and at the subsidiary in Mestre. This enables employees to travel safely by bicycle, especially in these particular period when public mobility is already limited due to the corona crisis.
And that is not all. Further initiatives in the field of sustainable mobility are pending. In the future, for example, charging points for electric cars will be installed and covered bicycle parking spaces will be built. Our founder, Dott. Ing. Federico Giudiceandrea, is thereby setting a good example. Since February he drives namely a hydrogen-powered vehicle.
Also this year many of our employees are enjoying their e-bikes, which can be used by them free of charge in the upcoming months.
