Philosophy
The nature of our work – Human Resources Certification – is inextricably linked to people, because at PEOPLECERT we all work towards a society where everyone will have equal access to knowledge – knowledge that contributes to eradicating social exclusion, to fortifying social cohesion and to creating a society of equal opportunities for all.
The sense of duty we feel towards society as a whole can be clearly discerned in our Vision, Mission and Ideals and these are the focus of our Corporate Culture and strategic aims.
The Human Resources Policies move along the same lines and are in full accordance with the SA 8000 standard.

• We provide all employees with equal opportunities;
• We avoid any sort of discrimination regarding sex, race, age, nationality, sexual orientation, beliefs and physical abilities;
• We facilitate communication and the freedom of expression; 
• We encourage initiative;
• We use valid and reliable policies for attracting and selecting staff;
• Our staff evaluation policies are based on merit;
• We follow Health and Safety regulations;
• We provide continual in-company training.
 
Policies
Our attention to the employees and Human Resource management policies are linked to the concepts of on-going training and growth, encouragement and support of initiatives and open communication aiming at the creation of a top-quality working environment that respects, appreciates, supports and helps the employee to develop.

When attracting and selecting staff, we place emphasis on matching the candidate to the position, evaluating both the candidates’ skills as well as their ability to respond to the Group’s Vision, Mission and Values.

Policies for setting, managing and increasing employee salaries and benefits are transparent, objective and consistent. Apart from steady salaries, we employ a system of multiple benefits, which number more than 50, such as annual bonuses for everyone, in combination with goal achievement rewards, various bonuses, hospital and medication health plans and a company cafeteria, among many others.

With the belief that open communication plays a significant role in the effort to understand and improve the work environment, we use a variety of means to promote it, such as an internal newsletter, briefing sessions, company events and an annual Employee Satisfaction Study, which proved to be an effective means of evaluation from the very first day it was implemented, leading to significant decisions and crucial improvements in the workplace.
