Corporate partnership

“The idea of this partnership is simple: by partnering with OTIUM, you help improve the framework conditions of the disease in the working world, while also favouring healing and return to work”, said Olivier Sandoz, Deputy Director of FER Genève.

By enabling employers to provide active support to their employees who have been affected by cancer, we have developed an innovative partnership plan. To cap it all, employees benefit from free services while an HR training course is provided to their leaders. Aiming to better reconcile work and disease.

Classes provided and access to services for employees

By joining OTIUM in a 3-year partnership (renewable), businesses provide their employees, men and women alike, with the possibility to access the group classes offered as well as the list of services provided by the Centre OTIUM which boost well-being, equilibrium and confidence.
