Objective 2

Focus on the Development of Employee Competences / Learning Organisation

One of the PGNiG Groups’ priorities is the creation of a friendly, unique workplace for existing and future employees. Therefore, the Group cooperates with numerous schools and higher education institutions in the regions where its companies operate. We advise their youth on the trades and professions important to the Group’s business, invite them to visit our facilities to watch our work, and offer them work, internships and trainee placements. With a view to educating a highly qualified workforce, we support selected vocational education classes and organise numerous training sessions for our employees. We also support employees’ development with a work assessment system.
