In August 2024, Krones Andina achieved the prestigious Great Place to Work certification, recognizing the Krones Group’s subsidiary in Colombia as one of the best companies to work for. This recognition is the result of responses from our employees in a survey conducted by a global consultancy, which resulted in a score. The survey evaluated themes such as credibility, respect, impartiality, pride, and team spirit to understand the team’s balance and work environment.
This positive outcome reflects the intense cultural transformation work that Krones Andina has been implementing in its operations. Through actions and training, the company has provided employees with the opportunity to be heard, guiding the relationships between teams, but also managers and their team members.
Krones Andina also values the plan based on the Krones Group’s Target Picture, which promotes a diverse organization, open to innovation, embracing change, and collaborating with trust and without barriers.
The local company is committed to the Group’s objectives, based on behaviors that lead us to “Solutions beyond tomorrow”:
- We improve the world through innovation and progress.
- We move forward together, collaborating for success.
- We value diversity and inclusion.
- We have a reflective attitude.
- We bring unexpected solutions.
- We fulfill our strong commitments.
- We master complexity where it cannot be embraced.
- We live our creative power and progressive research.
- We focus on what is most important.
- We deliver consistent excellent results.
The goal for the coming years is to maintain the certification.
The importance of having this certification
For our customers to feel well-served, a highly aligned effort from employees is necessary, and this is only possible when they are motivated and satisfied in their work environment – as the Great Place to Work certification suggests. Also, organizations with this seal are highly sought after, increasing the chance of attracting the best professionals in our recruitment.
