Employee Awards

Many professions and occupations have their own celebration. The establishment of Entrepreneurs' Day in 2016 was a good initiative. It is a moment when, in the rush of everyday life, we can appreciate the efforts of entrepreneurs. An increase in GDP, a decrease in unemployment are some of the effects of their work," said Minister Waldemar Buda during the Gala. Receiving such a distinction, a special award, is in fact a great appreciation of the work of all Phoenix Contact Wielkopolska employees in production and administration. The company very often emphasises that it is made up of people and they are the basis of its operation. We already employ more than 3,400 people at all locations. I am extremely proud of our employees. This is an additional form of appreciation and recognition of the work that everyone does on a daily basis and of their commitment, the effects of which we can see, for example now, during the presentation of the Polonica Progressio award. Once again, I would like to extend huge thanks and congratulations to all Phoenix Contact Wielkopolska Employees at the production plant in Nowy Tomyśl, the plant in Tarnobrzeg and the Shared Services Centre in Poznań. - says Marcin Poznański, CEO of Phoenix Contact Wielkopolska.
