Marketing service provider, catfish
“If someone had asked me two years ago whether I would like to work in Wels, I would have said no,” says Lisa Kiesewetter, who works as a developer at the Wels-based marketing service provider Premedia. What made the difference was that their needs were addressed: Kiesewetter now works three days a week from home and two days a week in the office. The climate ticket is paid for by your employer. The train journey can also be used as working time. “34-hour weeks or the four-day week are not the last word,” says Norbert Furuter, responsible for finances and human resources. It is not the task of a company to specify flexibility, but to respond to the concrete requirements of the special life situations of the employees.
This also applies to Michael Glöckl, team leader at Premedia. He lives in Salzburg, but is not a “home office type”: Premedia therefore provides him with a co-working opportunity (joint office for employees from different companies) in Salzburg.
A climate ticket is also financed for the 125 employees if required and interested: Anyone who commutes further than 100 kilometers gets the full price, and there is a subsidy for shorter distances.
give employees a helping hand
These offers, relating to a flexible working environment, would appeal to employees, says Füruter: “We want to appeal to people from the Bregenzerwald to Lake Neusiedl. The number of unsolicited applications has increased significantly.” Offers (“Benefits”) are a tightrope walk: “You have to be careful not to go along with everything. The offers also have to fit the company.” For example, the Premedia bistro in Wels is currently free for all employees: “That can change again. But the cost of living is currently rising sharply. We want to help the employees.”
