Ms. Birgit Gebauer, our training manager at Keller & Kalmbach, is on the board of Akademie Handel e.V. and an active member of the LGAD's vocational training committee. Ms. Elfriede Graf, HR manager at Keller & Kalmbach, is a dvct-certified coach and a member of DVCT e.V. Furthermore, she represents us on the LGAD's collective bargaining committee.

Regular exercise is an important and necessary balance to daily office work, which is still largely spent sitting. Exercise helps keep the body in balance and protect it from disease. Keller & Kalmbach cares deeply about the health of its employees.Keller & Kalmbach cares a lot about the health of its employees. It is not without reason that there is a volleyball team in Unterschleißheim consisting of Keller & Kalmbach employees. Employees are also motivated to take part in the B2Run, the German company running championship, as the "K&K Team". This series of company runs is held at a total of 17 German locations.
