De’Longhi enjoys an outstanding reputation especially amongst those whom appreciate good coffee. Founded in 1902, the company has developed from a small craft business to one of the largest suppliers of high-quality coffee and espresso machines. Since the company took over the British brand Kenwood and the German brand Braun, you will find kitchen, household, heating and air conditioning appliances from the Italian manufacturer in an increasing number of households. Located in Wiener Neudorf, De’Longhi-Kenwood GmbH is responsible for customers throughout Austria. In addition to sales the subsidiary also provides accoun- ting, marketing, after-sales and back-office functions. “We are currently establishing a human resource department”, announces Tanja Bröckl from the accounts department. She is responsible for ZEUS® together with Gisela Wolf and head of department Sabine Hromek. Flexible and predetermined solution Two years ago, the headquarter in Treviso, Italy, decided to improve Time Recording from spreadsheet-only to a professional level, leaving the choice of system to each country‘s subsidiary. Just a few weeks after the start Tanja Bröckl confirms that their decision to choo- se ZEUS® was the right one: „Creating day and shift patterns and assigning them to individual employees was quick as easy.“ The system provides flexible and core working times, as well as full and part-time models but also special requests such as a three-, four- or even a six-day week. The latter for a colleague who frequently attends trade fairs. At the same time, ZEUS® also ensures meticulously, that the permitted weekly working hours are not exceeded. The otherwise flexible system can also be predetermined if desired. For example when it comes to country-specific How does working only three days a week sound to you? Or are you interested in a yoga class? There is absolutely no doubt, that De’Longhi are very concerned about their employees work/life balance. Commitment and individuality contribute to their corporate culture extensively. This is the reason why flexibility was the most important requirement of the new system for Time Recording at the Austrian sales subsidiary. Therefore it is not surprising that they use ZEUS® from ISGUS. FLEXIBLE IN DAILY WORKING LIFE, PREDETERMINED IN LABOUR LAW 6
