Leica Geosystems values its role in society and helps improve the quality of life of its employees, their families and the communities around them. We put employee satisfaction first and offer our employees attractive working conditions so that they may enjoy their jobs to the fullest, and achieve a healthy work-life balance.
In 2003, we introduced a Code of Conduct. This code, based on our shared values, sets out the required standards for personal conduct of all Leica Geosystems employees towards all stakeholders and covers topics in the areas of individual conduct in the workplace, business conduct in activities outside of the Company, and recognition and reward systems for teams and individuals.
Leica Geosystems strives to offer its employees an interesting, flexible and challenging work environment. We recognise the importance of equal opportunity and diversity in the workplace, and there is a strong emphasis on high quality education and training, with an apprenticeship program in place. We also have a strong commitment to the social well-being of our employees. We have an in-house Social Worker, programs in place to support retirees and employees returning to work after an illness or accident. Staff achievement is recognised with the CEO-Awards and long-serving employees are acknowledged at the Jubilee Celebration ‘Jubiäumsfeier’.
Our stakeholders
Stakeholder trust is one of the most important success factors for our company. We report our progress towards our goals honestly, via our regular ‘Shareholder News’ and our customer magazine the ‘Reporter’. With our staff magazine "Together" we give our employees a platform to exchange ideas and receive information about interesting projects and the company.
