Accepting the award on behalf of the company, Ms. Cornelia Reinecke, Senior Vice President, Human Resources at Sick Germany, said, "It is a great honor to receive this award again and we are delighted to have been at the top of this award for 20 years. This is a great affirmation for Sick and a testament to the fact that our efforts in enhancing our attractiveness and employee-oriented culture have paid off. Most importantly, we would like to thank all of our employees for making this a "Great Place to Work" thanks to their tremendous contributions, as well as their exceptional efforts and commitment. ”

The results of the award were obtained from an employee survey, in which a total of 585 employees were invited to participate in the survey, with a 91% approval rating. In the categories of Credibility, Respect, Fairness, Pride and Team Spirit, Sick also received enthusiastic support. Sick continues the positive trend of the last year and strives to create a very good working atmosphere for its employees, even during the Corona pandemic. Employees were particularly satisfied with Sick's management of the pandemic crisis and rated it with an average approval rating of 96%. In addition, the celebration of the 75th anniversary of SICK held in September 2021 was also well received by employees.

Cornelia Reinecke further commented, "The vast majority of our employees feel that they have a great place to work, and that certainly makes us proud. But at the same time, the survey results reflect the challenges we face today. For example, what do employees care about at the moment? What new resonances will there be for the new corporate strategy? What is Sick doing in terms of digital transformation? We attach great importance to this feedback and consider it to be an important basis for SICK's further development in the future. "
