Compared to previous years, the ongoing progress and development of Lenzing’s project in Brazil (+297 employees) has greatly contributed to increasing group headcount in 2022. The main reasons for employees leaving in 2022 are retirements and mutual/voluntary contract terminations. This is reflected in all figures in the following tables.

Collective bargaining agreements

Lenzing complies with the local labor standards in all countries of operation. Collective agreements cover 82.4 percent (2021: 80.2 percent, 2020: 84.0 percent, 2019: 81.9 percent) of the Lenzing Group’s global workforce. 99.5 percent (2021: 95.0 percent, 2020: 91.1 percent, 2019: 98.9 percent) of employees are subject to notice periods governed by labor law or collective agreements.

Employment contracts

Most Lenzing Group employees are employed in a permanent employment/service relationship. It is currently customary to work the first 6 months under a fixed-term contract followed by an automatic transition to a permanent employment/service relationship. Only around 2 percent of the workforce (including external personnel) have a genuine fixed-term employment/service contract that goes beyond the usual 6-month fixed-term period. For this reason, there is no further separate breakdown into permanent/fixed-term employment contracts.
