By joining the nationwide business network ‘Erfolgsfaktor Familie’, Schulz & Sohn is now putting its own commitment into practice when it comes to balancing work and family life. In doing so, Schulz & Sohn is taking responsibility for its own employees, for team cohesion and for the company’s long-term success.
Responsibility is a core value
Social responsibility is one of the values that have traditionally been at the heart of Schulz & Sohn: responsibility for one’s own well-being and safety, for the well-being of colleagues, for one’s own actions and for the company and its customers. Joining the ‘Erfolgsfaktor Familie’ network is a further step towards extending this value to include the family dimension.
Attracting skilled staff and strengthening teams
Major changes in the labour market demand flexibility from companies. Employees today articulate their expectations more clearly. Good conditions for work-life balance benefit both companies and employees: they reduce absenteeism, increase productivity and strengthen loyalty to the company. A family-friendly corporate culture also enhances a company’s appeal as an employer and secures the workforce and skilled staff for the future.
About the business network
The Erfolgsfaktor Familie network office provides free support, primarily to small and medium-sized enterprises, in the practical implementation of family-friendly HR policies. Founded in 2007 by the Federal Ministry for Family Affairs and the German Chamber of Industry and Commerce, it now has over 9,100 members – ranging from micro-enterprises to DAX-listed companies.
By joining the network, Schulz & Sohn is underlining its commitment to offering attractive and responsibly structured working conditions in the long term.
