For the seventeenth consecutive year, we are confirmed among the leading organisations for human resources management
We have once again been ranked among the best Italian companies for people management and development policies, obtaining the Top Employer certification for the seventeenth year running.
The award recognises the Hera Group’s strategic commitment to continuous learning and organisational wellbeing, in a landscape where career longevity, talent attraction and generational inclusion are increasingly critical.
With over 10,500 employees, 96% of whom are employed on permanent contracts, we distinguish ourselves through an HR model founded on flexible welfare, 360-degree wellbeing, professional growth, the enhancement of uniqueness and a strong cultural identity. Furthermore, our multi-business nature represents a significant benchmark on the national stage, offering diverse career paths and the opportunity to develop new skills within the same organisation.
For us, continuous training is a cornerstone of its ‘people strategy’: thanks to an annual investment of approximately €15 million, over 97% of employees participate in at least one training initiative, averaging 30 hours per capita. A central role is played by HerAcademy, our corporate university, which aims to support the energy, environmental, digital and technological transitions through innovative programmes and ongoing dialogue with academia.
On the welfare front, we allocate €23 million annually to its Hextra system, which involves 99% of the workforce. The scheme offers, among other opportunities, initiatives for parenting support, health and pension services, and programmes dedicated to psychological and financial wellbeing.

Aliplast plastic incorporated in the artworks of Matteo Peretti, on show in Rimini
This Hera Group company, a leader in the plastic recycling sector, provided the material for the artist's works, on show from 17 February to 2 April at Fabbrica Arte in Rimini
For the Hera Group, sustainability continues to be synonymous with art. Through Aliplast, the Group company that puts plastic through a treatment process that allows its reutilisation, Hera has, fact, provided the raw material with which artist Matteo Peretti created the works that make up PET Island, an exhibition being held at Fabbrica Arte Rimini (FAR) from 17 February to 2 April.
The technical sponsor of Peretti's exhibition, Aliplast, engages, every day, in the fight against the pollution that has created the vast island of plastic floating in the Pacific Ocean. It is this island that the title of the Roman artist's exhibition half-jokingly refers to. In this sense, the perception of public duty behind Peretti's work, which examines the collective and social aspects of the subject matter, immediately won favour with the Hera Group, itself engaged in environmental education projects involving some 100,000 students from local schools.
With this initiative the multiutility aims to restate its own distinctive commitment to the circular economy; for some time now, this has involved significant initiatives aimed at involving the art world in the regeneration of materials that would otherwise be headed for disposal. One such initiative is the SCART project, which, thanks to close collaboration between Waste Recycling (another Group company) and students from the Fine Art Academies of Bologna and Florence, has generated several events; these include a travelling exhibition consisting of works made entirely from waste, some of which were incorporated on Hera's stands during the most recent editions of the Rimini-held Ecomondo fair.
