With us almost from the beginning
One thing distinguishes the four: They have been with the same employer, IEF-Werner GmbH in Furtwangen, for a very long time. All four of them started there only a few years after the company was founded. At this year's Christmas party in mid-December, they were honoured for this and bid farewell to their well-deserved retirement.
Furtwangen, 19.12.2019 – Edmund Grieshaber was a technician in research and development and has been with IEF-Werner for more than 27 years. Georg Hornuß, a master electrician, has more than 29 years of experience. Horst Grießl worked in field service and has been with the company for more than 31 years, and Jutta Hoch, a commercial employee, can even look back on more than 35 years. The four employees were bid farewell to their retirement in a cosy atmosphere at the Christmas party organised by IEF-Werner on 13 December.
"In our fast-moving times, such a long period of employment is a special feature that we appreciate very much," said Manfred Meyer, Managing Director at IEF-Werner, thanking his long-serving colleagues for this. "It is remarkable that all four employees have been with us almost from the beginning.” The company from the Black Forest celebrates its 40th anniversary in April 2020.
The new retirees have thus experienced a very exciting time - a time in which, as part of IEF-Werner GmbH, they have built up the company step by step into a leading global automation specialist. "They can be proud of this. We are very pleased about the loyalty they have shown us over the years.”
The wealth of experience of long-standing employees forms the basis for a strong team in every company. At IEF-Werner, people stay with the company for an above-average period of time.
