Employee Benefits in Aalen
We offer our employees the following benefits.
We regularly carry out occupational health examinations at the workplaces. In this way, we want to determine and maintain physical suitability for certain activities and identify any possible impairments as early as possible. Because your safety comes first at all times.
Of course, our employees can also contact the company medical service outside of these examinations if they don’t feel well.
In our company canteen we offer a wide range of hot lunches, which are served to employees in meal trays. Food that employees bring in themselves can also be freshly heated. In the bright and spacious rooms, there is an opportunity to talk to colleagues during the main meal times.
In addition, snack and beverage vending machines are available throughout the company buildings.
To ensure a good start with us, we place great value on structured training. Within the MAPAL Group, experienced colleagues are available to provide support and advice on a wide range of topics.
We encourage our employees to be healthy. Specialists from the occupational health service advise and support our employees in order to prevent and treat illnesses. They also offer various preventive examinations.
We’re also happy to support sporting activities employees take up outside the workplace. For example, we pay part of the entry fees for various swimming, running and cycling competitions or provide you with team clothing.
On top of this, our employees can attend seminars and workshops on the topics of ergonomics at the workplace, exercise, nutrition and stress management.
Space for personal commitments: As far as possible, our employees can decide for themselves when they start and finish work. Of course, this is done in consultation with the respective department and the other colleagues there.
Employees working in shifts, trainees, interns and holiday workers work fixed hours because of their dependence on other employees.
Certains évènements sont proposés uniquement à notre personnel, pour d'autres, nous sommes heureux de recevoir aussi leur famille et des visiteurs.
Nous formons un seul MAPAL et nous apprécions à leur juste valeur les efforts des membres de notre personnel. C'est pourquoi nous organisons tous les ans une cérémonie qui met à l'honneur celles et ceux qui nous sont fidèles depuis de nombreuses années. C'est également l'occasion pour nous d'inviter d'anciens collègues partis en retraite.
Nos collaboratrices et collaborateurs obtiennent par ailleurs des réductions sur des voyages, l'habillement, l'électroménager, etc. Nos offres du mois sont visibles directement sur l'Intranet via une plateforme en ligne ou avec l'application correspondante.
Notre Intranet est également une mine d'informations, de services et de possibilités pour une carrière épanouie avec et au sein de MAPAL.
N'hésitez pas à nous contacter si vous avez des questions !
L'équipe dédiée à l'apprentissage sur le site d'Aalen
À l'heure actuelle, six maîtres d'apprentissage et leur directeur, Uwe Heßler, dirigent le centre de formation d'Aalen dans le domaine commercial et technique.
Michael Barth
I am Michael Barth and have been working as a training officer in the IT sector for over 20 years. As a trainer in this area, it is particularly important to me to provide the best possible support to our trainee IT specialists in both technical and practical terms.
The continuity of my role as training officer emphasises the sustainable training practice at MAPAL. The training of computer scientists is an important task that encompasses a broad spectrum of IT knowledge and skills. Teaching programming skills, network technologies and other relevant skills is therefore crucial to prepare our trainees for their professional challenges.
Daniel Bayerle
I am Daniel Bayerle and at the training centre I am responsible for imparting knowledge in the field of conventional turning and milling as well as the basics of CNC milling. I enjoy passing on my knowledge to young and motivated people and preparing them for their future working life.
After my training as a cutting machine operator and two years as a CNC lathe operator, I joined MAPAL as a CNC grinder in June 2014. After three years on a CNC-controlled five-axis grinding machine, I trained to become a metalworking foreman and then took on the role of production foreman in cutting edge production. I have been working in the training centre since the start of training in 2022 and supervise trainees in their first and second year of training.
Heiko Berger
I am Heiko Berger and I supervise the trainees in the training centre in the areas of cylindrical/flat and tool grinding.
I myself completed my training as a cutting machine operator at MAPAL. I was particularly interested in the CNC grinding specialisation. After my apprenticeship, I therefore worked in the HPR fixed tools department at MAPAL and at the same time trained to become an IHK industrial foreman. After my further training, I gained experience in work preparation and finally moved to the training centre in 2014.
Michaela Brendle
I am Michaela Brendle, trainer for industrial clerks. I supervise our trainees from the job interview to the induction programme and intensive preparation for the final examination. During their three-year training programme, I also support young, motivated people in their personal development. This gives me great pleasure. I maintain close contact with the trainees. My door is always open for any questions.
I am a qualified industrial clerk myself. I have been working at MAPAL since 2014 and took over responsibility for commercial training in 2021.
Gerd Dambacher
My name is Gerd Dambacher and I supervise our trainees in their 1st year of training. I also prepare our industrial mechanics for their final exams. It gives me great pleasure to see how young people develop into great adults during their training period.
I completed my training as a cutting machine operator here at MAPAL in 1994. I then worked in fixture construction and had contact with many trainees there. Alongside my work, I successfully completed further training as a technician in mechanical engineering and a course of study to become a certified vocational teacher (IHK). Finally, in 1999, I came to my current place of work - the training centre.
Peter Kohnle
I am Peter Kohnle and I supervise our 2nd and 3rd year apprentices in the areas of CNC turning and CNC milling. I enjoy working with young, motivated people, passing on my expertise and supporting the trainees until they successfully complete their training.
After my training as a cutting machine operator at MAPAL, I programmed and milled ISO tools on the machine. After three years on the job, I trained as a mechanical engineering technician. I then worked on the programming of multi-spindle machines. In 2013, I moved to the training centre and completed further qualifications so that I could train young people.
Robin Offinger
I am Robin Offinger and I supervise our trainees in the areas of CNC milling and turning. I also prepare our cutting machine operators for their final exams. Supporting young people at this stage of their lives is a great and exciting task. I really enjoy helping to shape the trainees' development and accompanying them on their journey from school to working life.
I am a trained cutting machine operator and worked for six years as a CNC grinder in MAPAL adapter production. Whilst working, I completed further training to become a technical business administrator (IHK). I have been a technical instructor at our training centre since 2002.
