    Wüest Partner receives Great Place to Work certification

    “We are very pleased about the Great Place to Work certification. Commitment, mutual appreciation and trust have always been part of our corporate culture. The award reflects our ongoing commitment to a strong workplace culture in which our employees can develop their full potential,” says Patrik Schmid, CEO at Wüest Partner.

    The Great Place to Work certification is based on the Trust IndexTM, a standardised and internationally recognised survey instrument. Between June 2022 and the beginning of July 2023, Wüest Partner employees in Germany and Switzerland were surveyed on 60 statements regarding workplace culture. The topics of the survey included trust in managers, team spirit, appreciation, respect and identification with the company. The final evaluation is based on the Trust IndexTM score, which is calculated from the average agreement with all standardised Trust IndexTM statements.

    Wüest Partner Germany achieved an impressive Trust IndexTM score of 79 per cent, Wüest Partner Switzerland even 86 per cent. These excellent results underline Wüest Partner’s commitment to creating a positive and trusting working environment in which employees feel valued and supported.

    “Our employees are Wüest Partner’s most important asset. In a highly competitive labour market, it is important to position ourselves as an attractive employer and to set ourselves up optimally for the future. This also includes investing in a good corporate and workplace culture. The award is therefore an additional motivation for all of us to continue on our chosen course,” says Marion Fürbeth, Head Group HR at Wüest Partner.

    Hilti receives award as an attractive employer

    Hilti has received the Great Place to Work award for the seventh time, according to a media release. A representative anonymous employee survey and analyzes of the company’s HR work were therefore decisive for the evaluation. Two-thirds of the perspective of the workforce was included.

    The Great Place to Work assessment provides information about the quality and attractiveness of the company’s workplace culture. An excellent and future-oriented workplace according to the criteria of the international research and consulting institute is characterized by trust between employees and managers, sustainable value creation, effectiveness of management, lived values, the commitment and motivation of employees to innovate and the extent to which the team members can reach their potential.

    According to Philip Janssen, Head of Headquarters Human Resources at Hilti, 91 percent of employees would recommend Hilti to their friends and family as a great place to work. “For us as an HR department, it shows that our efforts to promote an employee- and performance-oriented company culture are visible and important to our team members.”

    The Liechtenstein provider of machines, products, services and software for the construction industry has also received the Benefits Award from Swibeco, which is given for additional services provided by a company.
