They also have the option, in agreement with their supervisors, to work from home, buy additional holidays, or plan unpaid leave. Furthermore, we define fixed bridge days annually around public holidays and between Christmas and New Year, which all employees can work in advance via flexitime and then take together.

- Attractive training and development opportunities: We promote the skills of our employees and give them the chance to develop personally and professionally. Because high professional competence, forward-looking development planning, and effective knowledge management are important for survival and innovation in changing markets.
