Healthy at work: Our occupational health management

We are committed to a healthy working environment. In recognition of our systematic, holistic occupational health management (OHM), we have held the “Friendly Work Space” label awarded by Health Promotion Switzerland since 2012.

Your health and effectiveness are important to us

Our occupational health management (OHM) activities have the wellbeing of all employees at their heart. We both encourage healthy individual behaviour and work to ensure that healthy working conditions are in place. Our measures range from prevention, early detection and advice through to support and reintegration.

In order to strengthen our employees’ health and wellbeing in the workplace, the Occupational Health Management (OHM) unit invests in measures relating to health.

  • Wide range of preventive measures: Courses on health and stress, stress management, mindfulness, resilience and other health-related topics
  • Preventative and awareness-raising campaigns and kick-off events on health matters
  • Modern, ergonomic workplaces and personal ergonomic consultations.
  • Health-related services such as sports classes, massages, physiotherapy or meditation at our main offices
  • Numerous discounts on gym memberships or healthcare products
  • Depending on the location, quiet rooms with loungers, relaxation pods, meditation and yoga rooms, sports facilities, showers, and spaces such as rooftop terraces in which to relax 
  • Staff restaurants with varied and balanced meal plans

In order to provide the best possible support to our employees, OHM offers free internal and external advisory services. OHM also trains our managers in early detection:

  • One-on-one, confidential health coaching from an OHM specialist, and support with managing work/life balance, stress, and physical and mental health
  • Anonymous advice on stressful situations or personal crises from a free external counselling service
  • Advice and support with regard to childcare or caring for relatives
  • Training managers in health-conscious leadership and early detection, teaching them to apply a sensitive management style and to recognise and address stressful situations as early as possible.
  • Systematically supporting teams in relation to stressors such as business interruptions and time pressure

Our OHM unit emphasises early detection and provides proactive support to employees.

  • Systematic absence management that recognises when support is needed in good time
  • Professional support for sick employees, and coordinated reintegration into the workplace
