Fritsch GmbH in Steinwenden was established as an electrical company in 1949. Today it employs skilled workers in four different main trades and also has a separate commercial division. Ownership of the family-run company has now passed to the third generation. Initial and continuing VET for its own skilled workforce has always been a key focus. In this interview, Julia Hunsicker speaks about the routes via which the company acquires and trains its trainees and staff and about how it is overcoming the challenges emerging in the wake of the digital, social and ecological transformation. She also particularly directs her attention to the specific areas of potential at a small company.
