Family-friendliness as part of our corporate culture: With its membership in the "Success Factor Family" network, firstcolo emphasizes its commitment to a better work-life balance.

Family-friendliness as a Success Factor

Work-life balance has been an integral part of our human resources efforts for many years. By joining the nationwide corporate network “Success Factor Family”, we make a clear statement: family-friendliness is part of our corporate culture and is closely linked to our values as an employer. At firstcolo, we want to create a work environment where our employees can thrive professionally – without their families being neglected.

Benefit from Experience and Knowledge Sharing

The network was founded in 2007 by the Federal Ministry for Family Affairs and the German Chamber of Industry and Commerce and now comprises over 8,900 members – from micro-enterprises to DAX-listed corporations. The goal is to gather good examples of family-friendly HR policies and to bring companies into dialogue with each other. “We are delighted with every company that becomes part of the (free) network and shares its experiences with others. The network office compiles 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, Project Manager, ‘Success Factor Family’ Network Office.

Why This Is Important for firstcolo

For us at firstcolo, family-friendliness means more than flexible working hours or the option of working from home. We want to foster a corporate culture that takes into account the different life situations of our employees. “The labor market is changing. Today’s skilled professionals articulate their expectations more clearly, and HR work is becoming more individualized. Work-life balance is no longer a question of ‘whether’, but of ‘how’ – how it is shaped,” says Kirsten Frohnert. This is precisely where our commitment comes in: We want to be an employer that is attractive not only today, but also for the skilled professionals of tomorrow.

A Win for Everyone

As a company, we benefit from motivated, satisfied, and productive employees just as much as our customers. Family-friendliness thus directly contributes to our success. Or as the network puts it: “The NEW work-life balance aims for a modern work culture that enables companies to be attractive to skilled professionals and thus future-proof in competition.”
