How A Toronto Tech Company Is Optimizing Its Office

From in-person employee event days, to children of employees playing Mario Kart, HR software company Humi is resetting the bar for office use in a remote work world.From hybrid work schedules and flex office hours through to the sharing of office environments, there have been as many approaches taken to the in-office experience as there are companies, corporations, and start-ups.

With employees located coast-to-coast, as COVID restrictions softened, it didn't make sense to serve staff with a Monday-Wednesday-Friday in-office mandate. And according to Wainwright, that's not something leadership would have been looking to implement, anyway. One example is team events. At Humi, employees come together several times a month to enjoy real-life face time, on small and large scales.

"Lots of our employees have kids — including Kevin," Wainwright says, "Kevin had this great idea, especially on Fridays and Mondays when there are school PD days, we . We've got a big projector screen up front; a couple months ago, we had three or four people with their kids, and we had Mario Kart going out there for the kids while their parents were working. People bring their dogs in.

Indeed, a knock-on benefit of the space-sharing Humi has embraced for the office is: nurturing these relationships serves the long-term goals of the company itself. "From the employee standpoint, , it's not about just putting snacks out. Obviously, these are things you can do, but truly making it so the only thing you're trying to get out of the office is having people there. They shouldn't have to act differently than they would at home, they shouldn't have to dress differently than they would at home, if the value of it is simply having people together.
