OQEMA – a family company for almost 100 years – maintains long-standing relationships with customers, employees and suppliers and represents quality, safety and development within the European market.

To ensure that our employees work with confidence, OQEMA places great value on technical expertise and on the suitability of new colleagues within already established teams. This is also the reason why we have so many long-term employees. We also support our workforce in its professional development – we are one of those companies that people don’t need to leave in order to further their career.

This improves efficiency in a work climate that is organised in an increasingly project-related way and also enables the compatibility of work and family life.

Our employees are our greatest potential. For this reason we specifically support individual responsibility and initiative and also sharpen individual awareness for quality and safety. We can and wish to use the strengths of our employees. On the other hand, we intentionally tolerate weaknesses. It might be somewhat old-fashioned to state this, and it might also be misunderstood. What do we aim for in this? To be aware that you don’t win every day. We wish to establish a basis for continuous well-being and placing demands on people with a sense of what’s appropriate. OQEMA enables its employees to think and speak freely, both among themselves and with their supervisors. Unpleasant situations can be discussed, and contradictions can and should be accepted in this regard.

On the one hand, we attempt to maintain the strengths of a medium-sized company, and on the other, we target an international level of expertise and continue to develop across the European market.
