The bock company is developing with great strides. Many things within the company are changing: the products, the key figures, and, of course, our processes. However, what we are and will always remain is a dynamic, medium-sized company with strong regional roots in East-Westphalia-Lippe.

A company with a powerful workforce that is many things at the same time: a fascinating community which provides support. A team which pulls together. A vibrant community which secures its competitive edge with innovative strength, craftmanship, and technical finesse.

These are the people that are committed to bock. Just as the company bock is doing its utmost for them.

36% of the employees make use of flexible working time models. But that's not all - with these further measures, bock optimises the work-life balance for the workforce:

• Solutions to work from home
• 30 days annual leave
• Monthly benefits
• Holiday pay
• Pension schemes
• Health check-ups

Ergonomic workplaces, personal protective equipment for all employees, fresh fruit every day, health bonus, eye and back check-ups and ... a company vaccination offer (influenza, COVID-19).

Doing something good for the next bock generation: In 2020, the average parental leave was 4.3 months. 37.5% of the employees on parental leave were men.

Be it a department event, regular information from the company management, a Christmas party or the “bock rocks” campaign – bock places great emphasis on an authentic, transparent feelgood atmosphere.

With these measures, bock guarantees the best possible occupational safety:

• Ear protection, protective equipment and work clothing

We want employees with opinions. We encourage an active suggestion scheme, offer a lot of personal freedom of choice, and actively incorporate the workers´council into processes.
