Since early November 2023 it's official:
RECENDT has successfully completed the first part of the "workandfamily" audit process and is now one of the most family-friendly companies in Austria.
The audit favors an internal company process in which the existing offer is evaluated and goals and measures for the further development and optimization of family-conscious personnel policy are bindingly defined and subsequently implemented.
Over the next three years, the focus will therefore be on implementing the measures agreed with employees in workshops.
After these 3 years, a final certification or re-audit will take place.
Existing measures (excerpts):
- flexible working time models
- Flexitime
- Telework
- Support for the daddy month
- Involvement of employees on parental leave in internal communication and support during the whole process including re-entry
A family-friendly corporate culture and leadership form the foundation for implementing a sustainable, life-stage-oriented human resources policy. For our company, being family-friendly means creating an environment in which our employees feel comfortable so they can perform at their best. Employees should be able to trust that their personal circumstances are taken seriously and, to the extent possible, can be reconciled with the company’s goals:
- Demonstrating appreciation and support
We recognize that family obligations are a part of life and actively support our employees.
We acknowledge the achievements of our employees who successfully balance work and family life. - Ensuring equal opportunities
We ensure that all employees—regardless of family obligations—have the same career opportunities. - Actively involving fathers in family-friendly policies
Family-friendly policies do not apply only to mothers but explicitly include fathers. - Early planning and communication
When planning staff schedules, we proactively take family situations into account to avoid bottlenecks.
