JYSK as my workplace

As an employer, we have a great interest in ensuring that our employees work and feel comfortable in a safe and healthy work environment.

By doing so, the satisfaction of our employees will be enhanced, and a better employee satisfaction results in a better shopping experience for our customers.

Therefore, we created a working environment policy you can find on MYJYSK. Additionally, we like to contribute to this by creating a good social work atmosphere where we always act according to our JYSK Values of "colleague" and "corporate spirit" and thus promoting a pleasant relationship between you and your colleagues, manager and customers.

But this is also up to you: Every employee should contribute to a good atmosphere through their behaviour.

We are very proud to wear our JYSK uniform in the warehouse.

Part of the clothing is: t-shirt, sweatshirt, pants and safety shoes. This is not only showing and giving us the feeling that we are united, but also fulfils the work safety rules.

You will receive all the necessary clothing on your first day with us and are responsible for them so that they are always neat and clean. Before work, you can change your clothing in the changing room at the warehouse – and then you are ready for another exciting day at JYSK.

We make no compromises when it comes to the safety of our employees and customers.

To secure safety for everyone, you will get training in rules and guidelines, as well as practical ergonomic training, manual handling and usage of our aiding tools. You should use the right techniques and take care of yourself as well as we are taking care of you: Each manager has in line with JYSK leadership the duty to achieve and maintain the best possible working conditions in his or her area of responsibility.

We carry out the principle of prevention: We register every near by accidents in order to learn from them and to prevent such situations in the future and protect our employees.

To ensure that you can work in your working environment in the best possible way, we provide you with all the tools you need. All Distribution Centers have a range of aiding tools for you, such as forklift, runners, gloves, knifes and more. 

Our goal is to provide our customers with the best possible service. Therefore, we place great emphasis on transparency and a structured work schedule for all employees.

At the start of each shift, a brief meeting is held to discuss the day's tasks and location.

These meetings can include various information from across JYSK, KPIs related to the performance, new guidelines, social events, and more.

This is also an opportunity for you to provide input and ask questions in an open forum, allowing you to receive feedback from your manager.
