Employees

With SPAR in Northeast Italy, Slovenia, Hungary, the Czech Republic and Croatia, more than 33,000 women and men are employed (per 31^st Dec. 2009). The motivated and optimally-trained employees are SPAR’s source of success. They contribute substantially to the positive development of the company through their high competence and customer service.

Significant Employer:

Thousands of new, modern and attractive jobs were able to be created over the past years because of the rapid expansion. SPAR is therefore a significant economic driving force.

Continual Further Training:

The value of continual further training is particularly stressed. In on-going training sessions, the improvement of customer service and sales awareness is a focal point. Seminars for increasing expertise in the delicatessen section or improved product knowledge are as much a part as sales training or the development of managerial skills. In its basic and further training, SPAR also utilizes E-Learning.

Innovative Apprenticeship Training

SPAR is especially focused on the training of a qualified next generation. In Austria, the apprentices receive a comprehensive training which far surpasses normal standards - actually in their own so called "SPAR Academy Classes". As of recently, this model is also being implemented in Hungary.
