How we work at Nordea

We want to be a workplace-based company, as we believe in the value of bringing people together. When we meet face to face, it brings energy to our workday – we are more creative and we collaborate more easily within our teams and across units.

At the same time, we treasure flexibility; both towards our customers and in the way we work.
Therefore, when possible and depending on our roles and our teams, we will support up to two days of remote working per week. This is what we call a hybrid working model.

The model we are introducing will help us move towards a new normal: teaming up in the office but also having the flexibility to do focused tasks from home and manage our work/life balance.

We offer our employees a workplace that promotes wellbeing and an inclusive atmosphere, allowing for a healthy work-life balance.

Parental leave

We strive to offer equal opportunities and access to parental leave for all parents in Nordea. Our Group-wide policy of equal opportunities for parental leave recognises different family types and goes beyond what is legally required of us in many of our operating countries.

We support our employees on parental leave and the conditions of the parental leave benefits are adapted to each country’s legislation, but also exceed the legal requirements.

Flexible working hours

Our employees have the option of a flexible start and end time for their workday, provided it fits the role and is agreed upon with the leader, and in some countries, the union. Employees in some roles have the possibility to plan all working hours independently.

Our employees also get time off for different special occasions, such as marriage or moving. The occasions that qualify for time off depend on the country.

Part time

Our employees are entitled to reduced working hours to manage different aspects of their life, for example if they have small children. Nordea also supports employees who want to work part time for other reasons, on a permanent or temporary basis, if it fits the role and is agreed upon with the leader.
