The staff restaurant
is one of the largest
in the Netherlands.
Around 2,000 people
lunch there daily. A
hot or cold meal is
made up on a self
service basis.
The eye-catching architecture set many tongues
wagging at the time of the opening. The Utrecht
head office was one of the first buildings in the
Netherlands to have reflecting glass waits.
One of the departments where a lot of activity is in evidence:
the dealing room.
Thousands of postal items find their way to customers and
colleagues via the mailroom.
The building is close to
the railway station and is
therefore readiiy access-
ible for both the employees
and the many visitors.
Utrecht is situated in the
centre of the Netherlands
and has good Communica
tions with many towns and
Schiphol Airport.
Visitors and employees ar-
riving by car can park in
the underground garages.
The cubes at the foot of
the building are intensive-
ly used meeting rooms.
Cleaning the glass
waits involves many
man-hours.
