To create an organizational culture focused on the health and well-being of the employee, the first step is, among other measures, to work the optimism, the recognition and respect towards the members of the company. This process not only results in workers who enjoy what they do, but also job satisfaction contributes to the productivity and it is a key factor in attracting and retaining talent, something that Trivu works on every day so that companies are increasingly aware of the relationship between happiness and success of a company».
