About the Top Employer award
Each year, the Top Employer Institute surveys companies based on company-identified information using the "HR (Human Resource) Best Practices" questionnaire. The questionnaire covers six overarching HR dimensions and 20 HR areas, such as People Strategy, Work Environment, Talent Acquisition, Learning, Well-being and Diversity & Inclusion. This year, the Top Employers Institute recognized over 1,857 Top Employers in 123 countries/regions, on five continents.
Metsä Tissue has participated in the Top Employer certification since 2020. Participation in the evaluation of human resources work by an independent institute according to national and international standards provides a clear benchmark of where the company stands and what areas for action can be derived. Comparisons with previous years make it possible to track the company's progress and development. This in turn helps Metsä Tissue to focus on the right priorities and implement effective measures.
