Eschwege celebrates: Diacom Altenhilfe wins active2work award for mobility!
In a celebratory ceremony in Frankfurt am Main, Diacom Altenhilfe in Eschwege was awarded the renowned active2work award. This honor promotes cycling and walking to work and underlines the institution's commitment to corporate mobility. According to the Werra Rundschau Managing director Torsten Rost is a passionate cyclist and uses his bike every day to get to work.
The state initiative active2work has set itself the goal of supporting companies in Hesse with mobility management and designing future-proof mobility. In this context, Diacom Altenhilfe received the award for its remarkable commitment to corporate mobility. When you get to know Diacom Altenhilfe, you quickly understand why it was considered for the award: There is a covered bicycle stand and a service station for repairs at the location.
The facility has also integrated another remarkable aspect into its mobility concept: seniors benefit from rickshaw rides, which are organized in cooperation with “Cycling without Age”. These trips enable older people to go on excursions, for example to the idyllic Werratalsee. A great offer that could also be used by other retirement homes - but so far there has been no response.
Company cycling promotion is trending
The silver award as a “bicycle-friendly employer” by the ADFC shows that Diacom Altenhilfe is on the right track. The initiative to promote cycling makes sense not only from a social perspective, but also from an ecological one. According to information from the fahrradfreunder-arbeitgeber.de Every journey that is shifted from car to bicycle contributes to reducing CO2 emissions - specifically, 130 g of CO2 per kilometer is avoided. Such steps are crucial in order to get closer to the climate policy goals.
In addition, the commitment to cycling leads to increased employer attractiveness and promotes the health of employees - a double benefit. This shows once again that Diacom Altenhilfe has a good hand not only in senior care, but also in corporate mobility.
Diacom Altenhilfe is pleased about the well-deserved award and continues to rely on innovative concepts to meet the needs of both employees and seniors. The combination of cycling and senior-friendly offers shows the great potential that lies in such an approach.
