The work involves weekend duty 2 out of 5 weekends, except for the period from June to August when weekend duty is scheduled for every other weekend. Three shifts with night shifts may also become relevant in the future.

We work according to a working time model with a wish schedule, which gives you as an employee the opportunity to influence your working hours.
