SFS won fourth place at the 2024 Swiss Employer Awards in the category “Large Companies with +1,000 employees” and has been awarded the seal of quality. The company is pleased with the good result it achieved once again in Switzerland’s largest employee survey, and views it as a success. At the same time, SFS intends to undertake a focused analysis of the valuable insights gained to further develop the company.
The Swiss Employer Award is the largest employee survey conducted in Switzerland, and has been naming the best employers in Switzerland and the Principality of Liechtenstein for over 20 years now. The focus is on the values of “Commitment,” “Satisfaction,” “Resignation,” “Employer attractiveness,” and “Willingness to recommend the employer.”
Best industrial firm in the Large Companies category
By coming fourth SFS has once again achieved a strong result, confirming the multiple top rankings of the past few years. SFS is proud to be the best rated industrial firm in the category “Large Companies with +1,000 employees,” reflecting the favorable feedback of our employees. The valuable insights gained from the survey will now be analyzed in detail and corresponding improvement measures initiated in the teams.
Seal of quality: a positive sign
In addition to fourth place, SFS also received a seal of quality. This is given to companies which exceed the mean of the Swiss benchmark for their size class in the categories “Commitment,” “Satisfaction,” or “Resignation.”
“We would like to thank all of our employees for their valuable feedback. The commitment and loyalty our value creators show daily are the foundation of our success – true to our value proposition: “Inventing success together.” We will continue this important dialog with our employees to further increase our attractiveness as an employer,” explains Arther Blank, Head of Corporate HR and Communications of the SFS Group.
