The Hera Group continues to dedicate resources, attention and commitment to its 9,000 employees. All of this has been certified, for the eleventh consecutive time, by the Holland-based Top Employers Institute, which has been researching quality standards in people practices since 1991. Hera has once again been recognised for its strategy, focused on people, and its best practices in terms of welfare, workplace environment, development and training.
Top Employers is one of the most prestigious awards in this area, internationally. The exacting process through which companies are selected and certified is based on data analyses and detailed assessments concerning: investments in training and development, welfare policies and on-boarding for new hires, careful planning of selection processes and career paths, strategies aimed at increasing talent, corporate culture and a constructive workplace.
The Group's highly innovative organisational procedures are, indeed, based on getting all employees involved, so that they can give meaning to their concrete operations, in line with the company's purpose.
Among best practices that Hera is continuously relying on, it worth mentioning "Hextra", the integrated corporate welfare plan intended for all Group employees with investments reaching 4.9 million euro in 2019, Smart Working which now involves over 1,500 employeesand their training with a total of roughly 250 thousand hours offered, thanks to an investment coming to 1.7 million euro.
