- The initiative was taken by Kurt-Allan Belfrage, President and CEO at the time
- At that time, Sweden had 4,000 employees
- The initial number of Gold Club members was 490
- Belfrage wanted to honor the people that have served and contributed to the development of the company for 25 years or more
- Anyone who has worked for the Atlas Copco Group for 25 years can become a member of the Gold Club
- It doesn’t have to be an unbroken employment, but different periods can be added together
- Should an employee be working for an acquired company, they can count all the years they have worked for that company to reach the 25 years. The only condition is that they also have been part of the Group for five years
- Because it is a sound business with strong values where people have the opportunity to grow
- Because of the people. It is all about friendship and pride. The Atlas Copco group spirit is unique
- Membership in a Gold Club ensures that you keep the Atlas Copco Group family network and meet colleagues and friends, old and new, on a regular basis also after retirement.
- The Gold Club is a way of positioning the Atlas Copco Group as a first-class employer
- Membership honors those who have contributed to the company for a long time
- It serves as a tool for people’s retention
- All countries where the Atlas Copco Group has been active for more than 25 years should establish a local Gold Club
