So that work is even more fun, you must be able to adapt it to fit in with your private life – in part at least. This is why we offer flextime models depending on your area of work. Following an initial period in our training workshop, this also applies to our apprentices.

We want you to get off to a good start. To help ease your way into the world of work KHS offers its apprentices an extensive initiation program. You and all of the other new trainees and dual work-study students from all the KHS sites in Germany meet for a joint freshers’ week. Here, you can get to know your new colleagues and learn a lot about KHS and your areas of responsibility.

Each apprentice or work-study student is also assigned a direct contact who is responsible for him or her.

It’s great when you enjoy your job and the money’s good! Our employees therefore receive an attractive salary – whether they’re on the regular pay scale or not. At KHS the respective collective wage agreements of the metal and electrical industry apply.

OK, so you’re not thinking about your retirement just yet! Nevertheless, this will become important later in life. You can thus make your own contribution to your later financial situation through our company pension program. Here, a percentage of your salary is invested in payments for your retirement and additionally topped up.

Learning made easy: so that our apprentices are well prepared for their final exams, we give them plenty of support with study and revision.

During your apprenticeship or dual work-study program you spend time in many different departments and thus gain a detailed insight into the world of KHS. You also assume responsibility right from the start. The focus is always on your personal further development in your specialist field. This enables you to apply your theoretical knowledge in practice from the very beginning.

Another course of study?! Of course – why not? We want everyone to make the best of themselves. We thus support our employees with holistic basic and further training concepts ranging from elementary courses to specialist lectures. Our in-house KHS campus academy is a platform that provides a whole range of study options. We also offer our apprentices many other exciting opportunities, such as safe driver courses or visits to breweries. In this way we create general conditions for our employees to gain valuable knowledge and practical experience – with the clear perspective of being able to contribute this specifically both today and in the future.
