Equal rights at ORISA are not just a theory \u2014 they can be seen in everyday life. In the way we work together, how decisions are made and how everyone can contribute their own strengths. For us, diversity is not just a buzzword, but a lived reality. Our employees feel that. They experience that competence counts \u2014 not gender, origin or marital status. But how does this manifest itself in everyday working life? We asked our colleagues:<\/p>\n

When different perspectives come together, more sustainable and innovative solutions are created. Annett, Team Leader of the CREALIS\u00ae Service Team, regularly experiences this: \u201cWe benefit enormously from bringing together different approaches and experiences. This results in more stable solutions right from the concept phase.<\/em>\u201d Johannes, Consultant for Strategic Corporate Development, also sees this as a great strength: \u201cDiverse teams not only help to drive innovation, but also to question ways of thinking. That helps us all move forward.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>

Role models? Don\u2019t play a role here.<\/h3><\/span>
<\/div><\/div><\/div>

While women still have to contend with prejudices in many technical professions, this is a thing of the past at ORISA. Here, women do not have to prove their competence first \u2014 they are trusted from the outset. Female management positions are not an exception, but the norm. Virginia, a dual student, quickly realized this: \u201cI\u2019ve never had the feeling that differences are made between men and women here. Performance counts \u2014 not gender<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>

<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

However, Heidi, technical manager, knows a different picture from her past. During her studies, she was often one of only a few women in lectures, and there were hardly any female role models. It was all the more significant for her when she experienced a woman in a technical management role at ORISA who was not only recognized, but was also a mother: \u201cUntil then, I had thought that I had to choose either a career or a family. At ORISA, I saw for the first time that both are possible.<\/em>\u201d Vittoria, Project Manager, also confirms that nobody is pigeonholed here: \u201cWe are seen for our strengths \u2014 regardless of gender.<\/em>\u201d This is exactly what makes our company strong. It\u2019s not about conforming to certain role models, but about being perceived as an individual with your own abilities. Virginia adds: \u201cI particularly appreciate the fact that successful women are visible here and act as role models \u2014 this shows that performance and commitment are the focus.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>

Family and career, please<\/h3><\/span>
<\/div><\/div><\/div>

The importance of flexibility in balancing work and family is constantly growing \u2014 but even more important is a corporate culture that enables this flexibility. Annett experiences this every day: \u201cMy working day regularly ends at half past three, then I pick up my child \u2014 without feeling guilty. That feels natural.\u201d<\/em>
\nAnd this openness applies to all parents, not just mothers. Fathers can also combine family and job flexibly here. \u201cIt\u2019s absolutely no problem for fathers to take parental leave for longer than two months or to work part-time. ORISA does not adhere to traditional role models,<\/em>\u201d says Matthias, developer. Vittoria has had similar experiences: \u201cI was able to work part-time for several months for family and academic reasons. The support I received enabled me to make the most of this triple task.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>

ORISA: A place to stay<\/h3><\/span>
<\/div><\/div><\/div>

A working environment in which everyone can contribute is more than just a nice extra \u2014 it is the basis for success. We are actively committed to equal opportunities, for example by signing the Diversity Charter and through our involvement in the \u201cWeltoffenes Th\u00fcringen\u201d initiative. But above all, it is the day-to-day cooperation that makes the decisive difference. \u201cORISA is more than just a workplace for me. I have found a home here, in a diverse team with strong women and men who value and support each other<\/em>,\u201d summarizes Heidi.<\/p>\n

This is exactly what defines us as a company: diversity, trust and the conviction that we are stronger together. Because equality is not an abstract idea \u2014 at ORISA, it is truly lived. With this in mind: Happy International Women\u2019s Day!<\/p>\n<\/div>

Equality is not expressed in words, but in everyday life \u2014 and at ORISA it is a matter of course. Women do not have to prove their competence, it is expected of them.
