Compensation and benefits Competitive salaries are just the start

Benefits

One size does not fit all. Our employees enjoy a wide range of flexible benefits, including modern working models such as variable hours, part-time employment opportunities, job-sharing arrangements, and remote working options. We take the necessity for work-life balance seriously and do everything possible to accommodate different working styles and rhythms.

Equal Opportunities

It takes all kinds of people to make a company great. At Schindler, we give no consideration to an employee’s origin, nationality, race, religion, gender, sexual orientation or any other designation. Rest assured that our compensation programs follow this same principle of equal opportunity for all.

Community outreach and support

Schindler believes in unity of effort and has collaborated with other Schindler entities on many projects outside of Australia. Within Australia, we have collaborated with several community groups including:

• Work with disability services groups to provide equal opportunities to people with a disability to work within the business
• Partnership with St Yon’s technical trade school to encourage school aged students to enter into trades, with an emphasis on encouraging girls in trades.
• Provision of training to the fire, police, ambulance, military and other organisations on how to rescue trapped passengers. This includes education on the dangers associated with working with lifts and escalators.
• Support of employees in their fundraising efforts for charities. Using a “your sweat, our cheque” philosophy, employees participate in a number of events. In 2017, a contribution of over $32,000 was made, the majority matching employees’ fund-raising efforts. Schindler Australia also pays the costs of the employees’ participation in fundraising events.
