We recognize that our success is driven by the expertise of our highly qualified team. That’s why we offer comprehensive benefits, giving back to our employees. We believe that by providing a workplace where everyone can contribute their best, we can continue revolutionizing the future of manufacturing.
We know juggling work and private life can be tricky. That’s why we provide you with support to help you achieve a healthy work-life balance. The contractual working time of a full-time role is limited to 37.5 hours, for example. In addition, we have a flextime model with a working hours bank, meaning you can alter the hours you work to fit your daily needs. Without a doubt, vacation is one of the joys of life. At Nikon SLM Solutions, we provide our employees with 30 days paid annual leave. In addition, all employees covered by collective bargaining agreements will be entitled to an additional 5 days off from 2022 – increasing their annual vacation day total to 35 days, meaning there is plenty of time to enjoy your time off to the fullest. And around the festive period, Nikon SLM Solutions also gives you more time for yourself and your loved ones: to take both the 24th and 31st December off, one day of vacation is enough.
It is important to us to protect the health and mobility of our employees as well as to do our bit to protect the environment. For this reason, all of our employees are entitled to their own company bicycle. You simply pick out the bike you like and pay less for it, because thanks to the tax breaks for bikes bought as part of our leasing scheme you make great savings compared to the regular store price.
One of the highlights of the working day for us is spending time together with colleagues in the lunch break. So that you can focus on the conversation at the dinner table, we offer you subsidized dishes and snacks which change daily and are delivered fresh every day by the caterer. You will also find vegetarian and vegan options on our menu. In addition, free water, tea, and coffee are available for you in the office.
Your safety net in times of need. Everyone hopes that they won’t become dependent on long-term care, but it’s good to know it’s there for you if you need it. Nikon SLM Solutions pays into the CareFlex supplementary care insurance scheme for each of our employees monthly. Furthermore, you can also top up the amount in your account yourself at any time or even co-insure family members.
Working on the PC can be tiring for your eyes. As the health of our employees is very important to us, we subsidize your new prescription glasses to make your everyday work on the computer easier for you.
We work to live, and for that you need the necessary financial means to sustain yourself. That’s why you can trust us to pay you a fair and competitive salary. Our salaries are collectively agreed and are set regardless of gender, origin, or other factors. Depending on your role, other special benefits such as non-tariff allowances, performance-related bonuses, and a company car may be added.
Vacation time is arguably the best time of the year. In order to make it even better, all employees covered by collective agreements receive an annual holiday allowance of € 1,200. We also provide a 13th salary payment so that you don’t need to worry about the Christmas presents or the Christmas dinner.
Saving for the day your working days are behind you: after successfully completing a probationary period, we will subsidize your pension on a monthly basis.
Recommend us as an employer to your friends and acquaintances. For each employee we hire at Nikon SLM Solutions on your recommendation, you will receive a one-time recruitment bonus.
With Nikon SLM Solutions you have the opportunity to adapt your work to fit your lifestyle. Almost all of our roles can also be undertaken part-time. This allows us to support young families or people who would like to enjoy more leisure time. In addition to our flextime model with a working hours bank, you also have the opportunity to work remotely on a day-by-day basis, allowing you to remain as flexible as possible. Because it’s the result of your work that counts at the end of the day – not your presence in the office.
We are a family-friendly employer and know that things are not always easy for young families. We provide every parent a contribution for kindergarten or daycare per child. Furthermore, in the event that a child is ill, all parents receive a continued payment of their wages for 5 days, in addition to those days covered by the health insurance.
Special moments such as your wedding day or the birth of your child are unique experiences in life, so we want our employees to be able to savor them. This is why we provide special leave days and bonus payments for these occasions.
We make it easy for you to learn the ropes! The first few weeks in a new job are always a particularly exciting time – many new faces and impressions await you. Our onboarding event gives you a comprehensive insight into our company as well as the opportunity to get to know your new colleagues directly, ensuring you start your new job on the right foot.
As an international company with branches all over the world, English is an essential part of our everyday lives. We understand that not everyone feels completely confident in their language skills. That’s why we offer you the chance to take individual language courses to make it easier for you to communicate with your international colleagues. For people who come from abroad to work at the Lübeck branch, we also offer German courses to make it easier for them to integrate into their new home. We see it as our job to create the best conditions for the development of innovative and competitive products in our company and this is only possible if we can continue to develop. With our employee development measures, we look to respond to the needs of every one of our employees.
