You don’t sweat so you don’t have to change out of your office gear either.’ The PauseXpress, a collaborative initiative of Move@work and De Bongerd, kicked off during the Surf Your Stress week. From now on, staff can take part free of charge at 10 locations spread across different campus buildings.
