Eurotherm exceeded in three key areas to achieve gold status

Eurotherm performance as an employer was assessed against the globally recognized Investors in People framework. This model looked at how well the company leads and supports its employees compared to the competitors in the automation industry.

To achieve the Gold accreditation, Eurotherm Nordics had to exceed in three key areas:

  • Leading: The company proved to be a great leader, capable of motivating and inspiring its employees. The whole of Eurotherm Nordics team is enthusiastic about reaching common goals and works with organizational values in mind.
  • Supporting: Eurotherm Nordics showed excellent ability to manage and structure the work of their team, while always remembering to recognize / reward high performance.
  • Improving: Lastly, Eurotherm Nordics put great effort in ensuring continuous improvement and creating sustainable success by effectively adapting to the ever-changing world.

Eurotherm Nordics journey towards the Gold accreditation

Since achieving a Standard level accreditation in 2018, Eurotherm in Nordics have focused primarily on communication and wellbeing initiatives.

With difficult challenges faced during the last year, across the world, Eurotherm Nordics still managed the Investors in People assessment process although IIP visits were not possible this year. Despite the challenges of working from home, regular digital meetings and initiatives like WIMC (What’s In My Control), physical as well as mental wellbeing, focus on nutrition, physical activity and work/life balance contributed to excellent feedback from employees. Eurotherm were able to successfully complete the necessary surveys and interviews, leaving the results unaffected and proving the company’s resilience and robustness.

Commenting on the award, Sven-Inge Gullstrand, Managing Director of Eurotherm Nordics, said: “This is great feedback from the team that the changes we have made and the initiatives we have been driving continue to make Eurotherm a truly great company to work for and it engages people in the whole organization.”

Chris Ashworth, VP & General Manager, commented: “It is a significant accomplishment for Eurotherm Nordics to be awarded with the Gold level accreditation. This is truly a great achievement and a brilliant example set by the Nordics team for the rest of Eurotherm. I believe that our business success relies on two key things: our innovation as a company and our people. We have a talented and knowledgeable employee base globally who have made Eurotherm the great company that it is today.”
