The Top Employers Institute has announced their choices of companies officially certified as “Top Employers of Luxembourg 2016”.

The companies are Dimension Data Luxembourg, Orange Luxembourg, Goodyear Dunlop Tires Operations and BNP Paribas au Luxembourg. All four of them have also been chosen as “Top Employers of Europe 2016”.

The annual, international research undertaken by the Top Employers Institute recognises leading employers around the world: those that provide excellent employee conditions, nurture and develop talent throughout all levels of the organisation, and which strive to continuously optimise employment practices.

Crucial to the Top Employers Certification is the completion of a stringent research process, and meeting the required international HR best practices standards.

Olivier Posty, Country Manager of Dimension Data Luxembourg stated: “Our strengths lay in our people and our clients. We are exceptionally proud to be awarded this exclusive Certification and to be officially recognised as a leading employer. Being a Top Employer is not only an acknowledgement of our successful employee environment, but also of our commitment to optimise, develop and work with our team to become an even better employer.”

Goodyear received the prestigious certification for its European headquarters and for twelve other European countries: Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Poland, Slovenia, Spain, UK, Turkey, South Africa and the United Arab Emirates.

Silvia Sitzen, director Human Resources for Goodyear Luxembourg, said: “Being certified as ‘Top Employer’ once again in Luxembourg is an important acknowledgement for Goodyear. It recognizes and rewards our company’s continued commitment to providing an outstanding working environment that attracts and retains highly motivated, engaged and skilled associates. From my perspective, it is equally valuable that the assessment also highlights where we should further develop our employee value proposition. We know there are some areas we can improve, and with continually evolving HR best-practices, this helps our leaders to focus on raising the bar."
