Workplace health promotion at Dr.Clauder

As a responsible family business, it is not only the well-being and health of our four-legged friends that is important to us - the same also applies to our employees. Because without them, we would not have reached where we are today as a company.

In order to promote the health and well-being of our employees, we integrated health promotion into the corporate structures at Dr.Clauder in 2017 under the motto "Together Healthy + Active".

What we do in concrete terms: health promotion measures

Our employees now benefit from a range of different measures relating to the important areas of health. We rely on a mixture of workshops, courses and firmly implemented offers:

Fruit

Once a week, every employee receives free fruit to strengthen their natural defences. The fruit is supplied exclusively by regional farmer's shops. In addition, drinks such as water and coffee are available to employees free of charge.

Lunch

Subsidised seasonal lunches from a regional farm shop are always available in our power plant for refreshment.

Offers from the year 2019

Stress management workshop

In2019 ,a workshop focusing on dealing with stress at work and self-management was held for the first time. As a complementary support offer to company measures, the focus here was on personal understanding of the effects of stress and individual situation analysis. Sources of stress were identified, resources developed and promoted. With individual tips on how to optimally organise work and deal with stress factors, the employees were given assistance in promoting and supporting their mental health.

Ergonomics for frequent drivers

Our field staff are exposed to different physical challenges than their colleagues in the office - this, of course, cannot be ignored: In order to also support the health of field workers, the workshop "Ergonomics for frequent drivers" took place in 2019. This workshop offered interactive and practical tips on how to optimally set up and implement ergonomics in the car and provided many suggestions for a healthy and active break in the car and relaxation in the evening. What does ergonomics actually mean? What happens to the body when driving frequently and for long periods of time? These and many other questions were answered in the workshop, and there was also help for a healthy diet.

Active break

In 2019, all employees were able to take part in the "Active Break" course in order to get some momentum into their daily work routine and to provide suggestions for organising their breaks. Boost circulation and get rid of tension: This is how many colleagues came together weekly to loosen up their backs and muscles, stretch and prevent tension - always under the supervision of a competent physiotherapist. Whether it was stretching exercises for the parts of the body stressed by everyday office life, a small workout or fascia training: everything was included to give the circulation a proper boost and to acquire a lasting basic understanding of an active break.
