Housing and transport
A project with managed housing, transport and meals
The plant handed the project's living side to Workin under a separate contract: finding housing, move-in, the route to the site, and meals or a meal allowance.

01The company's starting position
The plant covered staffing, but living arrangements stayed with area managers. Housing, commuting and meals ate working time and affected attendance.
02The Workin approach
Living was moved into a separate contract with its own budget and owner. The plant received one contact instead of three separate areas.
03Sourcing and screening
Housing was inspected before move-in: number of places, equipment, house rules. The plant saw photos and conditions before signing.
04Document route
Lease, transport and catering contracts were kept separate from the staffing contract.
05Arrival and housing
Move-in was run by the coordinator: keys, rules, a contact for living questions.
06First day at work
The route to the site started together with the first shift, not after the first delays.
07Support after the start
Housing, transport and catering problems were resolved by the coordinator within the contract.
Project outcome
Area managers stopped dealing with living arrangements. Attendance stopped depending on whether a worker found the way and a meal.
