    The employees themselves know the best what is it like to work in the Śnieżka Group.  Therefore, in 2023, FFiL Śnieżka SA and Śnieżka ToC conducted – in accordance with the measures specified in the Śnieżka 2023+ Sustainable Development Strategy – an eNPS employee satisfaction survey.  The survey guaranteed participants’ anonymity and was carried out in the presence of employee representatives. All employees of both companies were invited to participate in the survey.  The surveys were completed by 88% of them (511 employees out of 587 eligible).

  • Good practice

    • Employees of FFiL Śnieżka SA and Śnieżka ToC recommend working in their companies (NPS = 6), citing the following reasons:
      • the team and the atmosphere in the company,
      • salary and benefits,
      • work organization,
      • training and development,
      • good company prospects,
      • attitude towards the employee and relationship with the superior.
  • Good practice

    The majority of surveyed employees perceive Śnieżka’s business strategy as clear and understandable (63% are Promoters, NPS = 50). The group that assessed the strategy as good for the company was larger than the group that perceived its positive aspects for themselves as team members (54% Promoters).  Employees declare a sense of influence on the strategy implementation.  Additionally, as many as 322 people provided spontaneous answers to open questions about issues worth special attention for the effective strategy implementation.

  • Good practice

    The analysis of eNPS results ensured better match of the activities scheduled for 2024 to the needs of employees. The survey and its results were also used by the Śnieżka Group to plan activities increasing the level of knowledge and understanding of the strategy and the identification of employees with strategic objectives.  In 2024, the Group intends to conduct two more eNPS surveys.
