We are aware that our success depends on the men and women – over 9,400 of them – who make up our workforce. Not only are they responsible for creating the Group’s image as seen by our customers and business partners around the world; their commitment is also vital if we are to keep our customers satisfied and thus ensure the long-term success of Wincor Nixdorf. Indeed, their performance, skills and dedication are of fundamental importance to our efforts to consolidate and build on our leading position. One of our key tasks is therefore to promote a culture based on performance and commitment. To this end, we make every effort to further the professional development of our employees and, in doing so, hope to reinforce their loyalty to our Company.

Wincor Nixdorf has always placed great importance on training. We offer young people opportunities and prospects both nationally and internationally and train them in a range of careers. Our principal focus, however, is on Germany – our single biggest location – from where all our training activities, including international placements, are initiated and directed.

A key element of this approach involves working with higher education institutions to set up partnerships, grants and dual education/training programs. We have consistently extended and developed these existing partnerships.
