Advancing Careers
We strive to create a workplace where employees feel valued, gain the right opportunities, and desire to stay for the long term. Our onboarding, training, and recognition programs go a long way toward accomplishing this.
GROWTH OPPORTUNITY
We provide opportunities for employees to grow and develop through:
• Promotions and transfers • Coaching and mentoring • Training and development – Including leadership, safety, compliance, D&I, technical, and job-specific topics • Educational reimbursement
REWARDING PERFORMANCE
At Wilsonart, we actively watch for employee performance and achievements that contribute to our success as a company. We have set specific objectives and criteria for both salaried and hourly employees by which to evaluate performance. Hourly employees are encouraged through continuous coaching, and salaried employees receive a formal annual performance review. This is the basis for how employees earn annual discretionary performance increases, service awards, and monetary SPOT awards.
SET UP FOR SUCCESS
Our onboarding program introduces new employees to our culture and our safety and compliance practices. Through a fourpart process, new team members learn about Wilsonart policies and employee benefits, plant safety, department-specific safety, and department-specific operations.
In 2021, we shifted to a full-day format for our orientation session to help immerse new hires in the ins and outs of our organization. The program has demonstrated what a difference it makes to new Wilsonart team members as they find their place in our organization.
