MOTORING NEWS - Continental Tyre South Africa will become the employer of choice for many of this year's matriculants and graduates after being named one of SA's leading companies to work for by an international research institute.
Last month, the Netherlands-based Top Employers Institute certified Continental as a Top Employer in South Africa for 2018, marking it as one which creates an optimal working environment for its employees.
The annual review recognises companies on every continent that provide excellent employee conditions, nurture and develop talent throughout all levels of the organisation.
For Continental who celebrated its 70th year in South Africa this year, it is a fitting acknowledgement of its role in the country's development.
"Since 1947, we have shared in our nation's rich history and our employees are representative of the vibrant and colourful community in which we operate," said CTSA managing director Shaun Uys.
"Receiving the Top Employer certification simply reconfirms our commitment to our employees and to creating opportunities for them to develop, grow and prosper within our organisation."
The Port Elizabeth-based manufacturing facility is the only Continental tyre plant in Africa and employs around 1 500 people.
