To take Oerlikon to the next level we need all present and future employees to collaborate at the best of their ability.

Our mission is that Oerlikon is a place where anyone, regardless of disability or impairment, can work and develop their career to its full potential. We bring diverse perspectives together and work towards a common goal to achieve a gender-neutral and inclusive workplace! We especially support the development of talented women to become future leaders. You are invited to learn more whether you are a potential candidate or an actual employee!

We enrich Oerlikon

The culture employee resource group (ERG) – E.N.R.I.C.H@Oerlikon is committed to play a vital role in contributing to Oelrikons' Culture success by bridging and transforming the experience of various diverse people at work across the globe who make up the unique global teams landscape. We act as advisory to leadership on diversity objectives, intercultural and professional development of teams.
We are dedicated to be the safe spaces for people with diverse ethnic, nationalities, races, identities, cultures, heritages, enabling all people to have a sense of community and belonging to help to new and current employees integrate across the organization and reach their fullest potential regardless of background

We strive to create gender equality

We empower women to make a positive difference in their families, communities, and the world. 

Having more women in the STEM field and especially in leadership positions will make a meaningful and sustainable impact on the company`s performance. Small & simple changes can have a huge impact, contributing to a more inclusive workplace where women thrive.

We identify specific actions to continuously increase opportunities for women to grow their careers and develop personally and professionally. We would also like to support achieving a work-life balance that enables women to hold more leadership positions in the future.

Parents@Oerlikon

Oerlikon, as an inclusive employer, understands and respects the diverse roles its employees hold in their personal lives - one of the most significant being that of parenting and caregiving. We believe that acknowledging this pivotal aspect is key to fostering a supportive work environment. The Parents@Oerlikon Employee Resource Group (ERG) is committed to promoting a work-life balance and providing a platform for the voices of our employee parents and caregivers, known as #VoiceOftheParents.

The Parents@Oerlikon ERG is designed to ensure that our working parents and caregivers are seen, heard, and effectively supported within the company. This endeavor aligns with our commitment to promoting diversity and inclusion and ensures that our parents and caregivers are not only recognized but also celebrated. By integrating the needs and perspectives of these employees into our organizational strategies and policies, we aim to make Oerlikon a place where individuals can flourish in their careers while also thriving in their personal responsibilities.

MultiGen

With this ERG, we aim to bridge the gap between different generations and learn to work together in a healthy way and face future challenges in a changing world of work.​​​​​​ Understand the needs of professionals from each Generation Z, Gen Y, Gen X and Baby Boomer generation to develop tailor-made strategies for their specific needs.

Different generations bring different strengths, competencies, expectations and synergies to the team. At the same time, a mix of generations in the team also demands a lot from the managers, who often belong to a different generation group. We therefore hope that this ERG will also be beneficial to managers who are working with multi-generation teams.

In order to remain attractive as a company and for our employees to value the corporate service offerings we want to find out what tools & trainings our company should offer.
