Launched in 2017, the initiative aims to raise awareness of the importance of good working conditions, encourage companies to create an employee-friendly environment, and at the same time strengthen the position of award-winning companies in the labor market for current and future employees.

“Recent years have posed significant labor market challenges for companies: fluctuation, retaining the workforce, training the workforce in an age of technological change, and maintaining mental balance after a pandemic. The constructive, practical answers to this have all appeared in the application materials,” said Sávos.
