For over fifty years, at Tesi System we have believed that the strength of a company is built on its most important foundation: the people who grow, innovate, and evolve it every day. That’s why we have chosen to strengthen our commitment to employee wellbeing with two new corporate wellbeing initiatives, starting from April 2025: “Friday Brioches” and “On-site Massages.” Two simple yet meaningful initiatives. Two concrete ways to say that, for us, taking care of those who work at Tesi System means investing in the company’s future
Wellbeing and Welfare: A Difference That Matters
When it comes to wellbeing in the workplace, welfare is often mentioned. But in reality, there’s an important difference.
Welfare refers to the set of material benefits—such as meal vouchers, insurance, agreements—designed to improve quality of life outside of work. Wellbeing, on the other hand, goes deeper: it focuses on physical, mental, and emotional health during work, on the conditions that allow people to feel good, motivated, and valued while carrying out their daily tasks.
It’s a cultural difference, even before it’s an organizational one.
As the SeriousFun Children’s Network reminds us, “happiness is the engine of strength” — and at Tesi System, we believe that happiness at work is not a luxury, but a fundamental value.
In our country, many companies are following this path: Barilla, Luxottica, Andriani are virtuous examples of those who have decided to put employee wellbeing at the center, through projects promoting sports, psychological support, and new ways to experience workplace environments. An inspiration that drives us to act with conviction.

Friday Brioches: a sweet moment of community
The first step in this new wellbeing journey at Tesi System starts with a simple gesture: every Friday morning, beginning April 4th, fresh brioches await everyone in the company break room to help start the day with more energy.
The idea was born from the desire to create a weekly moment of togetherness, to take a break from the daily rush, to meet with colleagues over a coffee and a smile. No reservations are needed: it’s a casual, open moment for anyone who wants to enjoy a tasty break and share a piece of everyday life.
And just on Fridays: the day when you can already smell the weekend, when the week’s fatigue can be eased with a small treat.

Massages at the workplace: caring for the body to free the mind
But well-being also passes through caring for our body, often put to the test by hectic rhythms, poor posture, and stress.
For this reason, Tesi System has planned a special initiative: starting in April, a massage service will be periodically available directly at the company, thanks to a collaboration with the professionals from Momento Massage.
The sessions are short but intense: 14 minutes dedicated to releasing tension, relaxing contracted muscles, improving posture, and regaining new energy. Treatments mainly focus on the back, shoulders, neck, and arms — the areas most stressed by those working in production environments or in front of a screen for many hours.
Participation is simple: 12 spots are available and must be booked, and massages take place in a specially set-up area in the company, ensuring privacy, comfort, and professionalism.
A concrete gesture of care, which aims not only to provide a moment of relaxation but also to be a tool to improve work life quality day by day.

Wellbeing is not a project: it’s a culture
These new initiatives are just the beginning.
Our goal is to nurture a corporate culture where everyone feels heard, respected, and supported. Promptness, effectiveness, synergy, and commitment — the values that guide Tesi System — are not just words, but everyday practices reflected in the way we care for our people.
As Henry Ford said, “Coming together is a beginning; keeping together is progress; working together is success.”
We believe that creating moments for connection, relaxation, and wellbeing not only makes work more enjoyable but also strengthens our sense of belonging, mutual trust, and our ability to face any challenge with enthusiasm.
At Tesi System, building always starts with building relationships.
And the wellbeing of our people will always be the foundation on which we shape every project for the future.
