Double the reason to celebrate
As a company, we are always delighted when we receive an award. We are especially pleased, however, when we receive awards that recognize our achievements as an employer. The Leading Employers Award and the Fair Company Award affirm that we offer excellent opportunities to our employees and future entry-level talent.
Leading Employers Award
Leading Employers conducts one of the most comprehensive studies on employer quality and follows scientific methods to ensure independence, objectivity and validity. It analyzes numerous criteria and focus areas and is conducted over multiple stages. This is why the results are all the more relevant.
For the fourth time, Vetter was ranked among the TOP 1% of employers in Germany! We were also the top-ranked employer in the "Prosperity & Leadership" category.
This sends a strong signal to our employees and future candidates. Leading Employers recognizes excellence in the following areas:
- Responsible leadership and strategic stability
- Positive employee experience, including reliable processes and regular feedback
- A vibrant culture and strong values
- A strong local employer brand
- Good work-life balance and suitability for everyday life
- Clear commitment to sustainability with internal awareness
In the study, we positioned ourselves as a strong representative of the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries, ranking second out of 67. We performed particularly well in the following five areas: 1) Prosperity & Leadership (top ranking), 2) Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG), 3) Work-Life Quality, 4) Attractiveness & Image, and 5) Culture & Values.
Fair Company
As part of the Fair Company initiative, German companies undergo regular, independent audits. This year, we were recognized as a Fair Company once again! Fair Company is the largest and most well-known employer initiative dedicated to promoting a fair working environment. It has been connecting committed companies and young professionals since 2004. The business and financial newspaper Handelsblatt presents this award to companies that demonstrate a strong commitment to providing career starters and young professionals with a fair working environment and development opportunities.
The award is a valuable reference for young professionals at the start of their careers. It gives us opportunity to attract new talent and receive regular feedback from junior employees. It also helps us better understand their needs and decision-making criteria, allowing us to optimize our offerings.
We are proud that these two awards recognize our philosophy and values. They motivate and encourage us to continuously improve the working conditions for our employees and aspiring talent. This benefits our employees, our company,and—last but not least—the region in which we are based.
