Carefully designed new concept in temporary employee accommodation

On large projects, the provision of food, accommodation and comfort for employees represents both a major outlay and a difficult logistical headache. A new Danish concept solves this efficiently by offering camps with all imaginable facilities directly on site.

The Danish company Site Facility has developed a new concept to create the optimum framework for employees stationed on both local and remote sites. With a chef, cinema, cleaning staff, entertainment centre as well as TV and Internet, Site Facility offers employees accommodation with comfort equivalent to a hotel. While providing all imaginable mod-cons for their employees, companies simultaneously achieve large savings on transport and travel days which frees up more time for work. Experience also shows that good facilities help to retain employees for longer periods of employment – and contribute to enhancing the working environment and safety in the workplace.

The best of both worlds

“The current market is characterised by either the very basic solution of site huts or on expensive hotels which are often located far from the workplace. We make it easier for our customers to choose the best of both worlds. We set up and maintain a ‘camp’ with all the facilities you would expect from a hotel," says Peter Forsberg, Project Manager at Site Facility, and points out that although there are costs involved in setting up a temporary camp, it does not cost more than hotel accommodation. It is just much more flexible which means increased satisfaction and enhanced employee work performance.

The concept has already been used by large companies such as Siemens Windpower and Vestas on new wind farm construction projects in Denmark and abroad.

“Projects such as these usually take several months to complete, and often specialists are sent out on these projects. They need high-quality conditions. After a long day at work our camps offer them food in prepared by a permanent chef, they can access the Internet from their own apartment or spend time with each other in an environment which is very homely and comfortable," explains Peter Forsberg.

Adapted to user requirements

Comfort has traditionally had to take a backseat, or employees have had to spend long hours commuting from hotel to work. In the Site Facility concept, the camp is designed to meet specific user requirements and food is served when needed regardless of whether companies run single, double or triple shifts. Every company has different requirements.

“Several of our customers demand services such as staff transport, meeting rooms or gyms – all services that we can easily provide. The sky is the limit. Our primary function is to service employees and offer conditions to ensure that they are able to concentrate 100% on their work," says Peter Forsberg and mentions cleaning of work clothes among the many additional services that Site Facility offers.

Based on customer feedback, project managers report that projects have been completed faster than expected precisely because of the options Site Facility offers. Site Facility is only a modest player on large projects, but as all companies focus on minimising cost, every little counts.

This is precisely why the Site Facility concept is unique – and it is not only Danish companies that have recognised this. Site Facility has projects underway in Romania, Bulgaria, the UK, Kenya, Russia, Norway and Sweden. All customers seek options of flexibility, full board, security and optimised productivity which are the cornerstones of the Site Facility camp principle.

A fast-growing market

The market for Site Facility is growing fast. Employees working on various projects are making increasing demands on comfort during extended project periods. A number of new markets have also opened up as our concept has become known and our customers have recognised the new and unique opportunities that Site Facility is able to offer.
