It is standard practice in the Company for performance assessments to be conducted on the basis of clear and measurable operational targets, including those linked to a range of sustainability issues.
In 2013, 99% of employees were involved in the performance assessment process and 93% in the career development process. This makes it possible to align our employees’ goals with those of the company, periodically identifying the expectations of both parties.
When targets are exceeded, individual employees enjoy higher levels of pay and at the same time the Company is able to improve efficiency levels and the quality of pulp and paper production, whilst cutting costs and reducing environmental and social impacts.
