In recognition of employees’ exemplary adaptation to demanding corona-related conditions, Lidl Cyprus has, since the pandemic’s outbreak, handed out cash bonuses to workers, especially those on the front line, in an amount which now totals 600,000 euros.
Most recently, the Lidl Cyprus Management decided a fresh cash bonus of 200,000 euros would be distributed to employees, shortly before the end of the company’s fiscal year, in February 2021. This third tranche of emergency aid, is a continuation of earlier extraordinary bonuses totalling 400,000 euros, which were issued in March and June 2020, during the first wave of the pandemic. Lidl Cyprus considers the bonuses a minimum gesture in recognition of the efforts of all employees, especially those operating within stores or serving at the company’s supply centre.
Thus, factoring in this most recent amount, Lidl Cyprus’ total 12-month bonus for the current fiscal year now reaches €600,000, with amounts disbursed to all employees, regardless of rank. The bonuses come over and above the higher-than-market-average salaries already paid to employees.
During the second wave of the pandemic, Lidl Cyprus employees have continued to show their best self, demonstrating the highest levels of professionalism, while operating with consistency, efficiency and passion. The company therefore stands by them once again, rewarding their tireless efforts.
“We recognise that this year has been particularly difficult, with unprecedented conditions,” said General Manager of Lidl Cyprus Spyridon Kondylis. “As a minimum recognition of the efforts made by our people, and especially towards those who work on the front line, we are proceeding to another extraordinary bonus, in addition to the regular benefits that we provide on an annual basis.
“Each and every one of us, within the Lidl Cyprus team, goes beyond him or herself on a daily basis, ensuring that nothing is missing from any home,” he added.
Even during difficult times, Lidl Cyprus knows how to embrace its team and reward its efforts, while contributing to society as a whole. With flexibility, constant adaptation and understanding, Lidl Cyprus continues to stand by its employees, remaining their staunchest supporter.
