“We are proud that so many JYSK departments and countries are being recognised for their hard work and dedication to making JYSK a great place to work,” says Camilla Ölander, Head of Talent Acquisition at JYSK.
Record number of employer awards
It is the first time that so many JYSK countries have received an employer award or certification. Across 10 countries, JYSK received the certification of ‘Top Employer’ which is awarded by the independent organisation, Top Employer Institute, which assesses companies’ HR practices and employee experience.

A great offer for employees

“The most important thing is that our people are motivated and satisfied,” Camilla Ölander says and continues: “JYSK should be a great offer for all employees, and our internal surveys show that our company values - Tradesman, Colleague, and Corporate Spirit - are valid in all JYSK countries.”
