Lanka Walltiles Group has been recognised as a Great Place to Work.
This prestigious recognition was cemented at the annual Great Place to Work Conference held recently, at The Hilton Colombo. Lanka Walltiles Group received certification as a Great Place to Work for all four companies within the group, which are Lanka Walltiles PLC, Lanka Tiles PLC, Swisstek Ceylon PLC and Swisstek Aluminum Ltd.
Lanka Walltiles PLC and Lanka Tiles PLC have been the market leader as well as the premier wall and floor tile manufacturer and exporter in Sri Lanka for over 35 years. Swisstek Ceylon PLC and Swisstek Aluminum Ltd have been part of the group for more than a decade and have established themselves as key players in their respective fields.
In light of this recent achievement Lanka Walltiles Group Managing Director Mahendra Jayasekera stated, “We are delighted that the Lanka Walltiles group have been recognised as a great place to work. Our companies have been consistently serving the public for over three decades with products of unmatched quality and consistency and this long-standing success is entirely attributed to our workforce and our vision for the way we treat our employees and the way we work as a company.”
The Great Place to Work Certified programme recognises organisations that have undertaken the Great Place to Work rigorous assessment methodology and organisations are judged on five major categories that include credibility, respect, fairness, pride, and camaraderie. All four companies of Lanka Walltiles group scored particularly high under the ‘Pride’ category, which focuses on pride in their employment, team spirit and corporate image.
Group HR Manager Athula Hewapathirana attributes this accolade by affirming the company’s winning formula is their unique people management philosophy, which inculcates the concept of Spiritual Management. This not only increased employee performance and productivity but also helps create a better place to work in and helps companies make the world a better place in general.
