Health promotion
A number of different approaches are used to promote the health of employees. In the Vienna Insurance Group headquarters, company physicians are available to provide medical treatment in the workplace. First-aid courses, including defibrillator training, is one of the measures used to improve on-the-job safety. Vaccination campaigns and preventive examinations during an annual health promotion day round out the range of offerings.
Equal opportunity
Fairness and equal opportunity are among the fundamental values of the Vienna Insurance Group. Male and female employees therefore receive equal treatment in terms of remuneration structures and career opportunities. As of 1 January 2009, around 1/3 of the managers directly below the Managing Board were women, both in the Vienna Insurance Group and Wiener Städtische Austria.
Flexible worktime models are used to help create a balance between career and family. Regular e-mails providing information on available positions in the Group and internal company information make returning to work easier after maternity leave.
