Food at work is changing. For the first time in history, we have five generations in the workplace: from traditionalists who grew up in the 1960s, to generation Z – born around 2000. All of them have different tastes and requirements: and then you need to factor in the needs of those who are doing active physical jobs, along with people who get less exercise. The need to provide variety for staff who eat in the canteen every day. The change in food trends, with religious requirements and the increasing need for vegetarian and vegan options.
Along with these challenges, there are opportunities. Good food is part of a good working environment, an important competitive advantage in a time of near full employment. A well-designed staff restaurant is a social centre, a place where ideas emerge, a collaboration hub for the staff team.
