A special start to an apprenticeship
For our new apprentices, the start of their apprenticeship marks the beginning of a new chapter in their lives. During the Planzer Welcome Day, we officially welcome them to the Planzer family and give them the opportunity to make their first cross-company contacts and get to know our corporate culture and values even better. The Welcome Day at the Umweltarena in Spreitenbach took place for the third time in August 2026 and has become an integral part of starting an apprenticeship at the Planzer family business.
Group-wide network
What makes the Welcome Day special is that it brings together new apprentices from different professions, locations and all subsidiaries. This creates a group-wide exchange, a sense of togetherness and the opportunity to get to know Planzer beyond your own workplace right from the start. To ensure that our apprentices from Ticino were able to follow the programme without any problems, dedicated interpreters were on hand to translate the content live into Italian. The French-speaking apprentices from French-speaking Switzerland have their own Welcome Day, which takes place in Penthalaz.
Taking responsibility early on
The apprentices take the floor themselves early on. In an interactive company presentation, they present their new employer to each other and to members of the management. The programme also included a varied activity circuit and plenty of time for games, fun and personal interaction.
