Genpact to open German language service center

The center will be aimed at the German market and is to take on 1,500 workers (250 of whom will be recruited this year). As the company has openly declared that it expects state aid, the enterprise will most probably be sited in one of the special economic zones. Locations such as Poznań or Wrocław seem especially likely, since prospective employees must have thorough knowledge of German. Genpact employs 19,000 workers in its operations centers in India, Mexico, Romania, Hungary, China and the USA. The company, which anticipates a 26% income increase this year, is one of the 40 or so international firms that have opened service centers in Poland so far. (Puls Biznesu, p. 10) A.M.
