Trelleborg is top employer in Czech region

Trelleborg Wheel Systems was announced as the winner of the Sodexo Employer of the Region 2021 Competition for the Zlín region in the Czech Republic, an award which recognises outstanding companies for their workplace environment.

Radek Cmunt, HR Director at Trelleborg Wheel Systems in the Czech Republic, says: “We are pleased to be recognised as a Top Employer in the Zlín region, where we have two of our three Czech production facilities. At Trelleborg Wheel Systems our motto is ‘People First’. We are pleased that even in these difficult times we managed to prove that our motto is not simply buzzwords, but is something we take pride in. Our priority is taking care of our employees, so they can take care of the satisfaction of our customers, no matter what.”

Given to the top employers in the Czech Republic since 2003, the Sodexo Employer of the Region award recognises the best practices of companies in motivating, rewarding and developing employees, and ultimately achieving a company’s financial goals.

During evaluation of companies, focus was on 14 KPIs, including amount of training and personnel development costs, rate of promotions and absences, employee benefits and turnover. The survey used the Saratoga methodology with assessment by PricewaterhouseCoopers in the Czech Republic.

Trelleborg Wheel Systems operates three tyre plants in the Czech Republic, in Prague, Zlín and Otrokovice, which underwent a recent expansion.
