Employee recruitment

The industry is competing hard for talented and qualified employees. As labor markets become increasingly more global and transparent, turnover is on the rise and there is great competitive pressure. Demographic changes and the associated need for employees make it imperative for ALTANA to position itself as an attractive employer in the entire job market with even greater presence.

In the past, ALTANA companies used to organize their own HR recruiting. To change this practice, the ALTANA Group plans to introduce a standardized global e-recruiting system in 2011. This cross-divisional recruitment management system will simplify and accelerate the entire hiring process and we expect tangible time and cost savings from fewer hard¬copy and email applications and less data management for recording applications. Ultimately, Web-based recruiting will improve our communication with applicants, for example with faster responses, and will heighten our attractiveness as an employer with a standardized professional presentation in an Internet application portal.
