Top Benefits
Scale-based company
As a company bound by collective agreements, we offer our employees employee-friendly conditions, such as higher pay, shorter working hours, less arbitrariness with regard to working conditions or long-term validity of the contents of their contracts. The collective agreement sets minimum standards that must not be undercut.
Mobile work & flexible working hours
You have an important appointment in the middle of the day? No need to take leave with us. Depending on the department and area of activity, it is possible to work mobile or on the road. In addition, thanks to our flexitime option, you can organise your working day more flexibly. A core time provides the framework, the rest you determine with the team.
Sabbaticals & more
Would you like to have more freedom and flexibility in your life planning and are toying with taking time off from work? With the lifetime working time account, you can save credit that you can use for a sabbatical, for further training, for raising children or for caring for relatives. It is also possible to leave your job earlier without having to take a pension with deductions, or to make a smooth transition to retirement with reduced working hours. All these goals can be turned into reality with the lifetime working time account - and the model is subsidized by Groz-Beckert.
Childcare facility & primary school
Not only you as an employee are close to our hearts, but also your family. So that you can concentrate fully on your work, we have built our own day care centre on the company premises. The opening hours and closing days are of course extended and adapted to Groz-Beckert.
