Pliva has once again confirmed its commitment to the long-term improvement of employee well-being and the development of quality workplaces by earning the Employer Partner and Above and Beyond certificates. This year, alongside the renewal of the Above and Beyond certificates in the categories of “Satisfaction” and “Innovation,” Pliva has also met the standards for the “Future” category. This achievement demonstrates the company’s focus on developing an HR system oriented towards the future and dedicated to the continuous growth of its employees.
Pliva’s HR practices are rooted in innovation and future-focused strategies, which is why the company has met the criteria for the Above and Beyond certificate in the Future category for the first time this year. By prioritizing health, particularly mental well-being, Pliva fosters high levels of employee engagement and satisfaction. HR initiatives, driven by continuous feedback, ensure that employees feel supported from the very beginning of their employment. We look forward to the future successes of this exceptional HR team, which recognizes the importance of developing HR systems and their impact on business sustainability, said Lara Šubić Šuša, Project Manager of the Employer Partner project at SELECTIO Group.
A proactive approach to mental health initiatives
Pliva takes a long-term, proactive approach to safeguarding employees’ mental health and resilience against both professional and personal challenges. For these efforts, the company has earned the Future Resilience certificate, another recognition from the SELECTIO Group. SELECTIO’s experts, certified psychologists trained in counseling, coaching, and psychotherapy, provide support and tools to strengthen resilience. Last year alone, the Future Resilience program supported 2,475 participants in coping with various professional and personal challenges, as well as stressful situations.
Pliva’s support system also includes other initiatives, such as the Mental Health Champions program, which educates employees to become reliable contacts for colleagues seeking advice and support on mental health topics. In addition, all employees and their family members have access to the Employee Assistance Program, offering 24/7 support from professionals specializing in psychological, financial, and legal counseling. Through these initiatives, Pliva reaffirms its dedication to employee well-being while setting high standards in human resource management at the regional level.
Continuous employee satisfaction surveys as the foundation of effective HR practices
Pliva takes employee feedback seriously, values it, and implements concrete actions based on these insights. This is further supported by regular employee satisfaction surveys, which serve as a basis for planning future HR activities. The survey results have proven to be above average, particularly in areas such as alignment of personal and organizational values. Notable strengths include satisfaction with interpersonal relationships, the perception of non-discrimination, and opportunities for advancement, learning, and development. Additionally, initiatives focused on employee well-being, management satisfaction, and other workplace benefits have shown outstanding results. It’s no surprise that Pliva has achieved a high Net Promoter Score (NPS), reflecting employees’ willingness to recommend the company to others.
