WHAT MAKES HUGO BOSS A GREAT PLACE TO WORK?

Our employees are high performers, demonstrating commitment and passion. We create a productive working environment to ensure a balance between work and your personal life – for example, through a broad sports portfolio, health promotion, and nutrition. But also through a flexible work structure and special measures to balance career and family. Discover what we do for our employees.
OUR HYBRID WORKING MODEL:
THREEDOM OF WORK
We are convinced that our working model must be as individual as the needs of our employees. "Threedom of Work" is our formula for more freedom and flexibility - a hybrid work concept connecting presence in the office and mobile working. By doing so, we are one of the first companies in the fashion industry to make the permanent expansion of mobile working standard.
WORK-LIFE BALANCE BETWEEN FAMILY AND CAREER
HUGO BOSS has been a member of the German network "Success Factor Family" since 2008. Our employees benefit from daycare for children aged six months and up, summer vacation care, or financial support for childcare costs. The "New Work" concept, with flexible working time models, options to work from home, and virtual collaboration make it even easier to balance family and career at HUGO BOSS.
HEALTH PROMOTION AND SUPPLEMENTARY INSURANCE
Healthy employees are important to us. That's why we do everything we can to make sure they stay that way. They can get the latest information from workshops and presentations at regular healthcare events. Our restaurant features a balanced menu, smoothies, and regional fruit all year around. Massages, nutrition counselling, and preventative mental health courses round out our offerings. What's more, every employee with an open-end employment contract can get a supplementary health ensurance policy from HanseMerkur.
WORK-LIFE BALANCE
We offer a wide range of activities for a balanced work-life balance. Power up in our own fitness studio or on the beach volleybal field, take part in a Barista coffee course or arrange a relaxing yoga lesson with colleagues on the rooftop terrace.
DIFFERENCES AMONG THE LOCATIONS
Globally, our employees enjoy different benefits than at Metzingen headquarters. Flexible working times in Tokyo, fitness courses in New York, or employee discounts in Sao Paolo: Discover our regions and find our what's waiting for you there.

WHAT DRIVES US EVERYDAY
