MUMBAI: A way for the IKEA Group to say thank you to its co-workers is through Tack! – the IKEA Group loyalty programme. IKEA Group will pay its co-workers another €108 million this year into their pension fundings, for their loyalty and contribution.
“We would like to show our co-workers appreciation and gratitude for their loyalty and contribution to the success ofIKEA. We do this through Tack! And I am happy to announce that this year’s payout will give our co-workers at IKEAGroup in India a Rs.14219/- each in their pension fund for this year. In India today we have around 300 co-workers, which will grow to 1500+ co-workers in a year and 14000 by 2025. We value our co-workers who are our most valuable assets. Happy co- workers can lead to bigger successes especially in India where there is so much talent” says Anna-Carin Mansson, Country HR Manager, IKEA India.
As part of the unique loyalty programme, IKEA Group co-workers annually receive an extra pay-out in addition to existing pensions, according to the same fair and simple principle. Every full-time IKEA Group co-worker in India who has worked for IKEA for five years or more, receives the same amount regardless of their position or salary level. Part-time co-workers will receive a proportional amount in relation to hours worked.
“Tack is the Swedish way to say thank you and every co-worker is important for our success and continued growth. This is why all co-workers in IKEA Group are included in Tack! according to the same fair and simple principles” says Anna-Carin Mansson.
Since Financial Year2014, €413 million has been allocated to the TACK! programme. The global funding is divided between all IKEA Group countries, based on each country’s proportion of the total salary and wages. A pre-requisite for a funding of the programme is that IKEA Group reaches its goal results.
In addition to Tack! all IKEA Group co-workers are also included in the performance driven One IKEA Bonus that can potentially give every co-worker around an extra month’s salary a year.
The IKEA vision is to create a better everyday life for the many people and we offer well designed, functional and affordable, high quality home furnishing, produced with care for people and the environment.
