The festive season is just around the corner and for many of us it is the best time of the year. We can finally look forward to the first sip of mulled wine at the Christmas market, freshly baked cookies and gingerbread and, above all, spending time with friends and family. Christmas is an opportunity to focus on the essentials: Time to relax, time to enjoy, time for moments of happiness and time to look back on an eventful year.
Take the time to experience the most wonderful time of the year and discover our collection of tips and stories about Advent and the New Year.
This week we would like to introduce you to two events at SEW-EURODRIVE that make the pre-Christmas period more attractive for our employees.
Christmas is a time of wonder and joy. It is an opportunity to pause and appreciate the small moments of happiness we share with our loved ones. But while many of us enjoy this time with family, there are those who miss the warmth and security.
For some, Christmas is a time of solitude and reflection. So it is especially important that we remember how we can bring joy to others. The true meaning of Christmas lies in the love and compassion we share with each other.
As part of our vital campaign, we give gifts to children and young people from children's and young people's homes and to senior citizens in our local community.
Not only do we make children, young people and senior citizens happy, we make ourselves happy too! Our motto is Giving makes you happy. Giving increases our happiness, which has a positive effect on our health.
Whether as individuals, groups or departments, everyone worked together to send surprises with personalised Christmas greetings. With this campaign from our vital360° occupational health management, our employees not only made children's eyes light up, but also did something for our health.
After all, an important pillar of our health is deeply rooted in social togetherness and our mental well-being, especially at Christmas. If you're happy, you're healthy!
We would like to thank all the Christmas angels from SEW-EURODRIVE for the many colourful packages!
This initiative is really something special. It's not just about giving presents to children and seniors, but also about spreading hope and joy. It allows us to live the true meaning of Christmas and to warm our own hearts.
“'Alle Jahre wieder”, "We wish you a Merry Christmas" and "Feliz Navidad" - these and many other songs get us in the Christmas spirit every year. Music is a wonderful way to stop and focus on what is important.
In the week before Christmas, the SEW-EURODRIVE music ensemble provides a festive musical atmosphere. At our plants in Bruchsal and Graben-Neudorf, there are almost 30 musicians, including former employees. Two rehearsals have been enough for the talented musicians to inspire their colleagues for nine years.
Did you know that music can make you happy?
Whether you're listening to music or making music, music touches us in a special way and brings us joy.
Children often sing happily and are in the moment. Unfortunately, this ability is often lost over time. Why is this?
Music is good and, depending on the style, can increase the release of adrenaline or noradrenaline. So it is high time to return to music. The Christmas season is an excellent opportunity to do so.
The musical commitment of our colleagues impresses me every year. Every concert they organize is a real highlight for me and I haven't missed one yet. It's just great to see how much passion and talent are involved in these performances!
