Work anniversary celebrations at Karl Knauer

Loyalty and commitment matter  

At packaging specialist Karl Knauer, everyone pulls together in good as well as in challenging times, come what may. A quick look at the long list of employees who have celebrated their 10th, 20th, 25th, 30th, 35th, 40th and even 45th work anniversaries this year confirms this. 

Together with the chair of the Works Council, Management Board members of the long-established Black Forest company thanked 32 colleagues for their loyalty and commitment; each received a restaurant voucher, a gift basket and a glass of sparkling wine to enjoy. To comply with current Covid restrictions, this took place (in two sessions) in the company canteen and not at the Badischer Hof in Prinzbach as originally planned. 
Employees who have been with the company for 25 years also received a silver Karl Knauer deer award and those celebrating 35 years were presented with a gold version. Exceptional members of the Karl Knauer family are traditionally honoured with a platinum deer. This year, this particular award went to Antje Jung, Maritta Lettieri and Martin Zapf, who have been with Karl Knauer since 1976, i.e. for 45 years, and have contributed to the company’s success. 
Those looking back on 25 or 40 years of service in 2021 were also presented with a certificate by Management Board members on behalf of Mayor Daniela Paletta and the Regional Council of Baden-Württemberg.
