The reconciliation of work and family life has been a central component of our human resources work for many years. By joining the nationwide corporate network “Erfolgsfaktor Familie”, we are therefore sending a clear signal. Family-friendliness is not only part of our corporate culture but is also closely linked to our values as an employer.
At firstcolo, we want to create a working environment where our employees can develop professionally, while ensuring that family life is not neglected.
The network was founded in 2007 by the Federal Ministry for Family Affairs and the Association of German Chambers of Commerce and Industry. It now comprises more than 8,900 members, ranging from micro-enterprises to DAX-listed corporations.
The aim of the network is to consolidate good examples of family-conscious HR policies. At the same time, companies should be brought into dialogue with each other.
“We are delighted about every company that becomes part of the free network and shares its experiences with others. The network office bundles best practices and makes them available to member companies in various ways. This way, every company finds its personal tip for everyday business,” explains Kirsten Frohnert.
Motivated, satisfied, and productive employees benefit both us as a company and our customers. Family-friendliness thus directly contributes to our success.
Or as the network puts it:
“The new reconciliation aims at a modern work culture. This makes companies attractive to skilled workers and competitive in the long term.”
