Harmonise work & family life

„Only together we are strong!”. Following that motto ensuring the work life balance of its employees plays an important role at the airport. It is our goal to achieve a work sphere where staff feels good on a long-term basis. Flexible time programmes or family friendly offers are some of the measures taken.
