There is a reason for celebration at St-Luc, because on 23 February in Antwerp, the company received the "Pioniersprijs Diversiteit 2010" (Pioneer Diversity Award 2010).  In the 50 or more employees category, St-Luc was rewarded by Jobkanaal for its diversity-related efforts and its progressive personnel policy and can now, for a period of one year, call itself a Pioneer. St-Luc has thus won its third award (in addition to the ADMB Award and the Provinciale Prijs Gelijke Kansen in 2009) and accordingly hopes to become a good practices model for other companies. As a growing player on the market, St-Luc demonstrates that it is entirely possible to implement diversity in a high-technology environment where quality is of central importance and to contribute to securing a good end result. “We see the added value of diversity in our company every day. Employees are contented, feel good in the company and are proud of their work and of their (diverse) work environment. Everyone feels respected and respects others. There is room for open communication and employees know that their needs and requests will be met. We want to continue with this project!  In concrete terms, we want to implement and develop our current activities in collaboration with various partners and with our own personnel.” (Fanny Dhondt, HR manager)
