In 2013, Italdesign Giugiaro introduced an innovative supplementary labour agreement, inspired by the German model in terms of participation, which provided for a new remuneration policies, greater flexibility in working hours and additional healthcare cover for employees and their families. «An excellent working environment is able to promote not only professional growth, but also personal and human development, highlighted Alessio Tanganelli, Regional Director Italy, Spain, Brazil of the Top Employers Institute. The Top Employers survey has verified and certified that Italdesign Giugiaro provides excellent conditions in the HR field and offers its employees a wide range of benefits and proactive initiatives, consistent with the company’s culture».
