Enjoy the benefits

You give a lot and get a lot in return

At Wieland, we emphasize the “we”. You work in an environment of thinkers and doers—where you can feel comfortable and achieve your goals. If you so desire, even globally.

Wieland is worth it.

We are passionate about our copper and copper-alloy semi-finished products. But for those who research, cast, manufacture, sell, design or organise them, they are also - we have to admit - a lot of work. Like all of us, you will ask yourself from time to time: “Why am I doing this?”

And to make sure you have not just one, but many ways to answer that question, we have put together a great package of benefits for you to enjoy. It's a package designed to ensure that you don't neglect your family, your leisure time or your health in all the work that copper does for us.

Make everyday life easier

You can only bring your best self to work, if everything is running smoothly at home, if the kids are taken care of and you have time for yourself and your family and friends. We have a lot of different support options available to ensure that you have a good work-life balance.

For parents and children

• Kupfernest the company's own daycare center for children of employees
• Support in coming back to work after having a child, e.g. through various part-time models
• Access to the online training program
• Christmas presents for all employee children up to the age of 16
• Use of the Wieland internal eLibrary with many eBooks and audio learning content

For leisure time

• Healthy, nutritious meals in the canteens, also available as take-away
• Health program with many fitness and relaxation classes

Time is valuable

To have more time for family and hobbies, to be able to find an optimal work-life balance, it helps to have some scheduling flexibility. We make this possible with our flex-time models and time accounts.

Flexible work time

• Weekly work time of 35 hours (plus breaks) for full-time employees covered by collective agreements
• Flex-account for overtime which can be used as time off later on
• Many other work time models, e.g. part-time jobs or job sharing

Wieland work time account

By converting work time and transferring your gross pay, you can acquire a work time credit for the future. This gives you the ability – in coordination with your supervisor – to temporarily reduce your work time fully or in part. For example, for building a house, a longer trip or continuing education. You can finance this period with your credit from the work time account by setting your pay at a value between 70 and 100 percent. This acquired credit can also go toward earlier retirement.

Health is everything

Our daily life poses many challenges. Regardless of whether you have a mentally challenging job or work in physically demanding shift operations, we will help you stay healthy. We have put together a comprehensive program to achieve this.

At Wieland, the collective tariff agreement framework conditions apply, which are supplemented by payments above the collective tariff agreement.

All employees at Wieland receive a personal performance bonus, which is based on the annual assessment by your supervisor.
