Elderly care, disability assistance, counseling and support for children, youth and families – the areas in which we are active already suggest that no day is like another for us. Every day, we support people with their individual needs and problems. Professional expertise paired with creativity are thus the tools of our employees. But social and economic challenges also ensure that we are constantly reinventing ourselves.
For More Purpose in Life
At the center of our work is always the individual with their unique abilities. We want to promote these in the best possible way and therefore constantly develop new concepts. In the area of elderly care, for example, we focus on shared living communities. This means that the focus is not solely on care, but on the opportunity for residents to contribute their abilities to the daily life of the facility. This way, seniors can engage in meaningful activities even in a care home. Integrating people with severe and profound disabilities into ‘normal’ life is also part of our tasks. We are particularly creative in bringing them into jobs subject to social insurance. For instance, we swiftly transformed one of our former training facilities in Marktbreit into an inclusive hotel.
Our Core Drive: Meaningfulness
Meaningfulness also plays a major role for our approximately 2,600 employees in over 100 facilities. It is definitely a strong inner motivation that drives them in their job. After all, what is more fulfilling than doing good for others? Nevertheless, we want to give our employees even more reasons why they enjoy working with us: be it preferred shift schedules, fixed core working hours, working from home, further training, subsidies for childcare or bonuses for employee referrals. With our lifetime working account, where employees can deposit overtime and salary and then ‘withdraw’ it for a sabbatical, family time off or similar, we are even international pioneers when it comes to flexible working time models.
Innovation Doesn’t Come Out of Nowhere
Of course, we don’t develop new concepts overnight. On the contrary: to further develop ourselves, we have incorporated fixed elements that drive idea generation. At the annual Innovation Day, managers come together to develop new ideas. We also ask all our employees annually about their wishes and suggestions for improvement. After all, they are the ones close to the people and who will later have to work with the new tools and concepts.
A Community
Whether we are developing ideas or taking care of our customers – we always tackle tasks together. This makes us strong and helps us overcome problems and obstacles. It is all the more important to strengthen this community regularly. That’s why we like to celebrate successfully completed projects appropriately, and we also come together in a relaxed atmosphere at summer festivals and Christmas parties.
Innovative Konzepte
Wie andere Unternehmen auch unterliegen wir gesellschaftlichen und wirtschaftlichen Herausforderungen. Auf diese reagieren wir mit innovativen Lösungen, von denen immer auch unsere Kunden profitieren. So denken wir beispielsweise Wohnkonzepte in unseren Pflegeeinrichtungen komplett neu oder betreiben Cafés und Hotels mit einem inklusiven Ansatz.
Expedition führen
Unsere Mitarbeiter sollen gerne bei uns arbeiten. Da wir wissen, dass die Zufriedenheit maßgeblich vom Führungsstil der Vorgesetzten abhängt, schicken wir all unsere Führungskräfte regelmäßig auf „Reise“. Hier lernen sie zuallererst sich selbst kennen. Zudem erhalten sie das nötige Rüstzeug, um Mitarbeiter in guten wie auch schwierige Zeiten respektvoll zu führen.
AWO gegen Rassismus
Diskriminierung und Rassismus sind für uns ein absolutes No-Go. Deshalb positionieren wir uns mit öffentlichkeitswirksamen Aktionen klar dagegen – sei es bei Sportveranstaltungen regionaler Spitzenteams oder mit Plakataktionen unserer Mitarbeiter. Doch auch im Kleinen bekämpfen wir Rassismus Tag für Tag, indem wir ihm in unseren Einrichtungen keinen Platz geben.
