Flexible Working Approach

When our employees are able to make the most of their talents in a corporate culture offering a greater degree of freedom, this correlates to greater company success. Flexible working conditions are a requirement for this.

At Continental, around 90% of employees work on the basis of flexible working models. These include both part-time and flextime as well as working from home or elsewhere, and sabbaticals. These options are intended to help create a satisfactory work-life balance. They enable employees to actively shape their working world and utilize their skills in the most effective way possible in each stage of their lives.

In this way, we meet the needs of our employees, the requirements created by digitalization and the challenges posed by demographic change.
