Attractive Employer

Kurtz Ersa is among Bavaria´s Top 20

Machine builder receives
“Successful.Family-Friendly” award

In the company competition “Successful.Family-Friendly”, the Kurtz Ersa Group is one of this year´s award winners. This means that the seventh-generation owner-managed mechanical engineering company belongs to the select group of Bavaria´s top 20 companies that were honored for their particularly family-friendly corporate culture. All small, medium-sized and large companies based in Bavaria with a “profit-making intention” were eligible to take part – with almost 300 applications, the 2021 competition set a record in terms of numbers. The cross-section from all sectors is striking – everything was represented, from craft businesses to medium-sized companies and global market leaders.

Compatibility of family and career

“Family-friendly HR policies stand out and will be the business card that gets people talking in the future. In the case of the award winners, one can see that the compatibility of family and career is possible without any problems and is a matter of course. The central challenge for the future of the economy is the search for skilled workers. A family-friendly environment pays off in two ways: Finding skilled workers, retaining skilled workers. After all, family-friendliness is a seal of quality that future skilled workers attach great importance to when choosing a job,” said Bavaria´s Minister of Economic Affairs Hubert Aiwanger at the award ceremony in the Kaisersaal of the Residenz.
