Atlantic Grupa has acquired the Above and Beyond certificate and solidified its position among the top 10 percent of companies with the highest quality HR systems

Atlantic Grupa, which has held the Employer Partner certificate since 2008, has once again acquired this prestigious recognition for quality in human resource management, awarded by SELECTIO Grupa, a leading HR consulting group that operates as a one-stop shop for all HR services. For the third consecutive year, the company has earned the Above and Beyond certificate through additional evaluation of its HR systems, a prestigious recognition that means the company is among the 10% of the best organizations in the region that already hold the Employer Partner certificate.

– During the certification process, Atlantic Grupa demonstrated significant practices and initiatives that promote excellence in all areas of human resources that we evaluated. The establishment of an organizational culture based on innovation, values, and excellence has reflected high employee satisfaction and engagement, as well as the company’s impact on the local and regional market. People and culture are at the center of all strategic projects that Atlantic measures with various indicators, with clear and inspiring goals. We are convinced that business success is guaranteed on such foundations, which has proven true again this year with the successful achievement of high HR standards in four out of five categories of the Above and Beyond certificate – Impact, Satisfaction, Innovation, and Future – stated Lara Šubić Šuša, project manager of Employer Partner.

Atlantic is also part of the initial group of companies that have this year acquired the Equal Pay Champion, the first certificate in Croatia based on the principle of ‘equal pay for equal work’. SELECTIO Grupa launched this project with the aim of recognizing employers who are determined to achieve equality, fairness, and equality in their organization. The Equal Pay Champion certificate represents a key step in building transparent pay systems in workplaces across Croatia.

Employee needs as a driver of new initiatives

Atlantic continuously improves HR practices based on real needs, collecting numerous employee feedback for this purpose. The company has implemented various programs for burnout prevention and initiatives that facilitate the maintenance of a balance between private and business life. The certification team of SELECTIO Grupa praised the high employee satisfaction indices during the assessment of HR practices, which are higher compared to the previous year.

Employees showed high satisfaction with feedback from their superiors, relationships within the organization, wellness initiatives, learning opportunities, the reward system, and many other aspects of working at Atlantic. Employees have the opportunity for lifelong learning and play a central role in directing their careers with the possibility of vertical and horizontal advancement. Development begins with education and continues through various other support mechanisms within the company. Employees can request timely feedback from any employee through the internal platform, whether it is about performance, project collaboration, or personal development, and thus continue to progress.

The Employer Partner certificate reflects Atlantic Grupa’s commitment to achieving the highest HR standards and dedication to excellence and innovation in every aspect of business. Through the Employer Partner project, 20,000 evaluations of HR systems have been conducted, and around a hundred organizations apply for the certificate annually, continuously transforming more than 100 HR systems across 10 markets.
