Banif employees left their cars in their garages and walked, took the bus or carpooled to work as part of the Banif Mobility Day, organised during EU Mobility Week.
The Banif team got into the spirit of the initiative whole-heartedly by shaking up their daily commute to and from work. A lot of employees opted to carpool, adding a little social spice to their usually solitary morning drive by sharing a ride with colleagues. Others, most of which haven't taken a bus in years, opted for public transport and took the opportunity to delve into a book or just sit back and admire the scenery. Those who live a little closer to the office donned their trainers and took the greenest transportation method of all - good old-fashioned walking.
The EU Mobility Week is a broad initiative aimed at promoting sustainable transport which causes less pollution, uses less energy, is more cost-efficient and is easier on the environment. This year's 'Do The Right Mix' campaign encompassed many activities, such as the National Bike Ride and National Car Free Day.

Banif Bank jieħu sehem fil-Mobility Week
L-impjegati tal-Banif ħallew il-karozzi tagħhom id-dar u mxew lejn ix-xogħol, qabdu tal-linja jew għaddew għal xulxin, bħala parti mill-Banif Mobility Day organizzata matul l-EU Mobility Week.
It-tim tal-Banif daħal fl-ispirtu tal-inizjattiva b'ħafna entużjażmu billi bidlu r-rutina ta' kif jivvjaġġaw lejn u lura mix-xogħol. Ħafna kienu dawk li ftehmu li jgħaddu għal xulxin, u kellhom iċ-ċans biex jissoċjalizzaw ma' sħabhom tax-xogħol matul vjaġġ li normalment jagħmlu waħedhom. Oħrajn, li ħafna minnhom ilhom snin ma jużaw tal-linja, għażlu t-trasport pubbliku u ħadu l-opportunità li jaqraw jew sempliċiment jirrillassaw u jgawdu x-xenarju. Dawk li jgħixu aktar viċin tal-uffiċċju libsu żarbun addattat u użaw l-aktar metodu ta' trasport antik u ekoloġiku - il-mixi.
L-EU Mobility Week hija inizjattiva kbira bil-għan li tippromovi trasport sostenibbli li jnaqqas it-tniġġiż fl-arja, juża anqas enerġija, jiswa inqas u li jagħmel anqas ħsara lill-ambjent. Il-kampanja 'Do The Right Mix' ta' din is-sena inkludiet ħafna attivitajiet differenti, fosthom in-National Bike Ride u n-National Car Free Day.
