Individual part-time work and job sharing give you more freedom for leisure, family, private plans and many more projects.

Various patterns of shift work

Different shift patterns and predefined cycles give our employees more flexible time off during the week. The night premium amounts to an additional 25%. We don't work weekends (production stops on Saturdays by noon at the latest).

Mobile working

Avoiding rush-hour commutes, enjoying flexible working hours, reducing our impact on the environment – mobile working allows this and much more when on-site presence is not essential.

Annualisation of working time

We focus on completing tasks rather than specific working times. The annualisation of working time contributes to a more flexible organisation of work and to compensate for seasonal fluctuations. Should this not be enough, employees can also take unpaid leave.

The five senses

Our tasting experts regularly assess the quality of our products using their five senses. They focus on consistency, smell, colour, shape, etc. This is how we make sure that our consumers always get a high-quality product.
