Lidl Cyprus "Top Employer" in Cyprus and Europe

In fact, Lidl Cyprus is the only company in Cyprus in any sector that has managed to receive the 2022 certification at a national level. This is shining proof that it is among the Top Companies in Cyprus for the working environment it offers.

This award is the result of the company’s activities, with a focus on its people. In addition to the benefits, which include competitive wages, among the highest in the retail sector and above the market average, the company designs and implements a plethora of activities for its people to ensure a friendly working environment with continuous training, growth and development, by offering equal opportunities to each of its over 650 employees. Moreover, this certification underlines the commitment of Lidl Cyprus to inclusive working conditions and diversity, free from discrimination and stereotypes.

"Our certification this year again is further proof that we focus on our people in the stores, in the logistics centres and in the offices. 2021 was a very demanding year for all of us. However, we managed to ensure a safe, healthy, friendly and fair working environment. For 2022, we are designing comprehensive programmes for training, growth and development for each member of our team, and we plan to strengthen our presence in the Cypriot market with the opening of two new stores," stated Spyros Kondylis, General Manager of Lidl Cyprus.

"Given the challenging year, which like the year before has impacted businesses around the world, Lidl Cyprus has continued to demonstrate that it prioritizes maintaining excellent employee practices in the workplace. They continue to meet the challenges of the changing workplace and work tirelessly to positively impact the lives of their employees. We are pleased to celebrate the organizations that have been certified as Top Employers in their respective countries this year," said Top Employers Institute CEO David Plink.
