Recruitment

This includes creating job advertisements, searching for qualified applicants, interviewing and selecting suitable personnel. Companies in the EU and Switzerland must ensure that their recruitment processes are free from discrimination and comply with applicable labor laws.

The aim of personnel development is to constantly improve the skills and competencies of employees. Training, further education, mentoring programs and other measures can be used for this purpose. Companies in the EU and Switzerland are increasingly focusing on the professional development of their employees in order to improve their performance and increase employee loyalty.

Performance appraisal

Attractive working conditions, development opportunities as well as recognition and appreciation can lead to this.
