We prioritize flexibility and reliable scheduling to support you in achieving a healthy balance between work and your personal life. From shift work to flextime, from full to part-time, all our worktime models give you autonomy to help you shape a working life that suits you best. This also means we work with you to find solutions should your personal circumstances change.
Reliable and predictable or flexible and responsive?
Shift models change from site to site, but all EGGER locations share the same 3-shift system.
Early: 6 am - 2 pm
Late: 2 pm-10 pm
Night: 10-6 pm
We continuously enhance our shift models to better align with employee requirements. As a result, we now have a range of options, from long-term and reliable to short-term and flexible.
- Clarity when and how long you will work
- Book vacations early and with confidence
- Work-time account with paid time off in lieu of overtime
- Transparent bonus model
- Shift differentials above the industry standard
Reliable scheduling
We understand how important it is to have reliable information when planning ahead. At EGGER, you will know when you will be working the following month no later than the 15th of the current month. In some models, we schedule shifts up to a year in advance. While we enjoy planning, we do stay flexible. We will help you transition to a more convenient shift should your personal circumstances change.
The shift system suits me perfectly – lots of free time during the week. I can get things done and spend time with the family.
Shift differentials above the industry standard
In our industry, shift work is critical. But working unusual and changing hours should pay off for you. That's why we pay shift differentials above the industry standard and based on a straightforward and transparent model.
- Reliable on-time payment
- Shift differentials above the industry standard
At EGGER, we pay shift allowances, for example, for:
- Night shifts up to 40% shift allowance
- Shifts on weekends and public holidays
- Overtime on weekends and public holidays
- Rotating shifts
Flexible working hours give you a slice of freedom
At EGGER, you can structure your working life to suit you and your goals. We are expanding our range of modern working models to give you more freedom.
- 40% working from home or remotely
- Work-time accounts with paid time off in lieu of overtime
- Modern working models
My loved ones are over the moon that I can take several accrued days off in one shot.
Flextime
EGGER offers flextime for those who don't work shifts. This means that outside of core hours, and depending on your workload, you decide when your workday starts and ends. Many coworkers adjust their schedules so they can leave at noon on Friday and start the weekend early.
Part-time
When negotiating part-time work, it is up to you and your team to find a mutually beneficial arrangement. We actively promote flexible working hours, for example, by offering financial assistance for childcare expenses for employees working 20 hours or more per week.
Time for loved ones
Having a fixed full-time schedule can make attending to pressing personal matters difficult. Something as simple as seeing a doctor or a trip to a government office can turn into a challenge. At EGGER, we have established a supportive environment that helps you to balance work and personal responsibilities.
- Part-time options for parents-to-be
- Flexibility in arranging working hours

- Discover how we support you and your loved ones
Downtime, free time, me time
Having enough downtime and free time enhances our overall well-being. A healthy balance between work and play allows us to be more positive in how we approach working together. Whether it's to recharge, experience new things, or relax, at EGGER, we want you to have time for yourself and people and things important to you.
30 paid days off
At EGGER, you enjoy 30 days of paid vacation, regardless of your pay scale group or the department you work in.
Paid days off for special occasions
Whether it's a wedding or moving house, certain moments in life deserve a little extra time. That's why EGGER gives you time off for special occasions.
