Workplace Quality

We believe if our people are motivated, eager and rewarded, they will be able to deliver the customer focus, teamwork and professionalism expected of them. This will in turn drive the long term success of the Group.

Besides aiming at an overall goal of zero accidents, the group is committed to attract, develop and retain a highly talented and diverse workforce with a safe and conducive environment, to foster a winning and inclusive culture.

Essentially it is people that make a company successful and sustainable. Therefore developing the best people and providing a rewarding career, learning and development opportunities to our people is a fundamental part of the Group’s CSR agenda.

Continuous development of Matex’s workforce is a cornerstone of the company’s success. One of the aims of the 360degree feedback process and the annual performance dialog is to reflect the ongoing development potential of employees and agree on appropriate development goals and activities. Matex considers the continuous training of employees within the framework of the internal talent management process important as it ensures well functioning succession planning within the company. Matex is gradually introducing the performance management system and aims at full coverage in the upcoming years.
