As of the end of 2006, Geberit employed over 5,000 people. In this respect, there is a noticeable increase in the importance of cooperation in international networks and organization-spanning teams. Geberit orients itself towards guiding ideas and fundamental values. These have been summarized in the Geberit Compass, in the Geberit Code of Conduct and the Geberit environmental principles and serve as a framework for action and road map into the future for all employees.
Education and further training as a companion
The company attaches particular importance to well-founded education and further training of all employees and to equality of opportunities. The training of qualified young talents is traditional at Geberit. Especially against the background of the demographic development offering attractive internships gains new importance.
New employees are familiarized with the company and its products through various introductory programs such as a one-week basic course which communicates practically related Geberit knowledge in small groups.
Motivated employees thanks to good working conditions
Regular trainings and professional development contribute to health and safety. Thanks to targeted health precautions (dietary advising, anti-smoking training, sports programs, etc.) the rate of absenteeism stays very low. Part of occupational safety is a fair salary in line with the market as well as the possibility to partake in the company results by a participation program.
