Culture and Working Life

Wirtek is an organization guided by its values and has an informal atmosphere. We are team players who are good at taking the initiative and working creatively. We are known, both professionally and personally, for our adaptability and flexibility.

The following helps to illustrate the working culture at Wirtek:

Good professional and personal development possibilities
Each year at Wirtek, all employees have a job appraisal interview with their immediate manager at which they have the opportunity to discuss current issues as well as goals for the future. The interview focuses on working relationships, job satisfaction, any problems, tasks and goals for the next period, and by no means least, training and development.

With a structured approach, we ensure that all the relevant areas are covered – in preparation for the interview all relevant background information is reviewed and is made available in advance to both parties.

After the interview, a conclusion and employee career development plan are drawn up. This is confidential between the immediate manager and the employee, and supports the employee in working towards his or her goals and developing both personally and professionally.

Focus on satisfied employees
We regularly carry out job satisfaction surveys to ensure that we know how satisfied both the employees and managers at Wirtek are. The results of the surveys are presented at the monthly information meetings. If the results are unacceptable, a work group is set up to address these issues and improve overall employee satisfaction.

Employee benefits
Wirtek offers a range of employee benefits, which contribute to creating an attractive work place; this includes a subsidized canteen, maternity leave with full pay, flexitime, extra holidays, relaxation therapy, and more. In addition, Wirtek offers its employees an options scheme giving them the possibility to own shares in the company.

Knowledge sharing
To ensure optimal knowledge sharing, we have set up a knowledge-sharing network. Employees can get together to share particular specialist subjects and to discuss experiences, solutions, specific challenges, or anything of relevance in the exchange of knowledge in this particular area.

Holistic management
It is Wirtek's strategic goal to focus on good management skills, which means that the management’s goal is to:

  • create security for employees
  • act according to company core values
  • be visible on a daily basis
  • carry out situation-specific management  
  • ensure employee job satisfaction
  • ensure that Wirtek is an attractive working environment; among the best in the industry.
