With regard to transition programmes for supporting employees who are about to retire, the Group maintains in effect a pension plan for salaried employees
of METKA working in the Company’s Volos plant and in its subsidiary SERVISTEEL S.A. This plan concerns employees over 50 years old (a total of 50 persons
participated in this process in 2011). Having as its first gaol to ensure the smooth succession of the persons who retire, the Company is developing succession
plans so as to identify the successors to the positions vacated and to help them adapt more quickly and without difficulty to their new jobs. In addition, through its
Talent Management System, the Company identifies employees who have exceptional capabilities and can become candidates for senior management positions.
For dismissals, a compensation is payable as provided by Law 2112/20 and Law 3198/55, while in some cases the compensation paid by the Company is
actually higher than the statutory one. Under the operational agreement concluded, the compensation foreseen for Technical & Labour personnel (either as
compensation for termination of employment or as one-of compensation upon retirement), is higher than the statutory one.
The Company is also applying a compensation policy for dismissals without prior notice, in which case employees are paid the entire amount of the compensation
they are entitled to. In all cases of dismissal, the employee’s years in service are taken into account for calculating the compensation due, in strict compliance
with the law.
The Company does not offer placement services or related support programmes (e.g. training, advice) to departing employees.
Equal opportunities and diversity
The core priority for METKA S.A. is to ensure a work environment characterised by fairness and the absence from discrimination on the grounds of gender, skin
colour, age, national origin, political beliefs and religious faith, and disability, for all its people and in connection with all work-related issues.
In a business activity sector such as construction, where the participation of women is limited, the Company is supporting the equal treatment of men and
women and the provision of equal opportunities regarding personnel selection, recruitment, training and advancement. For 2011, the percentage of women in
the Company’s total personnel stood at 24%, and their participation in the Board of Directors stood at 8%. METKA is also offering job opportunities to young
people, with persons younger than 30 accounting for more than 25% of its personnel.
* Includes training hours for freelance professionals.
