Floorish Your Future
Before you dig into our newsletter, let's get one thing straight: Winning Stories is our newsletter where we discuss and dive into how Tarkett wins on the market. In this edition, we are focusing on the job market.
In a world where catching top talent is like finding a unicorn, attracting, and retaining the best talent is a common challenge that companies face today. So, how do you do that? We firmly believe that fostering a robust culture of trust, entrepreneurship, and diversity is vital in attracting top-notch talent.
Navigating Success Through Our Values
At Tarkett, we have four key values which aren't just words on paper. They are the compass guiding us through the dynamic landscape of our work culture. These values are the core of our success. They ensure a thriving workplace and a business that stands out for its integrity, impact, cohesion, and constant pursuit of creative excellence.
From our 2023 engagement survey, 74% of employees agree that “I have autonomy to make decisions regarding my work.” Our company culture is based on our four values and an entrepreneurial mindset. It leads our teams to feel empowered to make decisions in order to deliver on our promises.

As we wrap up this edition, let's remember that our journey doesn't end here. In our ever-evolving work landscape, the facts speak for themselves: companies with more women in decision-making roles achieve a remarkable 53% higher return on equity (McKinsey & Company). Currently, 27% of our managers and executives are women, and we are committed to achieve a 30% representation by 2025.
Our work continues, fueled by the belief that our collective efforts will shape a future where diversity, values, and excellence unite seamlessly.
