No power train without Miba technology

Employee training and continuing education continued with the same high intensity. The
increased use of internal experts as trainers brought our training courses high quality and
custom-made content under cost-effective conditions.
Training was focused on developing managers in the area of production. Intensive, modern
management programs such as the Miba Leadership Academy and the Miba Management
Academy ensure that internal candidates for promotion to key positions are optimally prepared.
Miba also remained firmly committed to apprentice training. Twenty-seven young people
began training in the Austrian companies in 2009-2010, while Miba offers apprenticeships
to 22 young people at the Slovakian sites.
Our employees’ dedication and high level of loyalty made it possible for Miba to stand its
ground so well in these challenging times. The opinions of our employees are just as
important to the company as a relationship based on partnership and integrity. The Miba
employee survey takes place every two years at all Miba sites. In May 2010 we once again
invited all our employees to share their opinions and then to work together with us on
improvement projects.
The challenge of the Human Capital work for 2010-2011 is to work with the changed
economic conditions. We must respond to the high volatility and uncertainty of our markets
with increased innovation and flexibility in our shared work, while producing products
of outstanding quality. We are also focused on employee health. Only healthy, happy
employees can contribute their part to the company’s success.
