Strengthening community

On our trains and buses, and at our stations and offices, we at Deutsche Bahn have an important impact on the daily lives of many people in Germany – both our customers and our employees. Deutsche Bahn also works with many partners around the globe. This puts us at the very heart of society, and makes us an important part of society. And it is why we aim to strengthen community spirit and set the best example we can.

Good jobs in the team DB

As one of Germany's largest employers, Deutsche Bahn is committed to good working conditions. In addition to paying fair salaries and offering a wide range of fringe benefits, we also facilitate the professional development of our employees. We are supported in all of this by our DBplus partners. The BSW & EWH foundation family has long offered a variety of services for socially disadvantaged rail employees and for employees who are facing difficulties in their personal lives.
