EMPLOYMENT
PSC promotes and respects the physical and cultural integrity of people. For this reason, it mainly guarantees also working conditions that protect individual dignity. In addition, it designs safe working environments that carefully comply with safety standards, along with hygiene protection and health at work.
RECRUITMENT AND TERMINATION
In the following tables, you can check the number of hiring and employee termination for each of the business units included in this report. Data are detailed and based on parameters such as age, gender and nationality.
The evolution of the overall turnover rate follows a fluctuating trend in the different business units. This is partly due to the changes in the scope of reporting described in Chapter 1, which make the comparison of data with past years not significant. Among the plants of Prima Components Italy, 2020 saw in particular a higher number of closures than in previous years at the plant of SP Prima, due to transfers to other companies within the Group and retirement, in relation to the end of the production activity of the site at the end of 2020.
BENEFIT
All collaborators of this organization, included part-time and temporary workers, reap some benefits, detailed in the following table.
Training and development
It is also thanks to training and staff development that, year after year, PSC Group became increasingly competitive. A virtuous process not only for the company, but also for the human resources themselves who, thanks to the acquisition of new knowledge and skills, are more motivated and rewarded.
Despite the emergency caused by Covid-19 pandemics, which led to a reduction in the number of hours of training provided in all plants, even in 2020 the Group’s employees attended several courses based on a project made dynamic by an ongoing comparison: on one hand, the acquired competences and on the other hand, those necessary to the requirements for the company development, as well as strategic for the customers.
- Specialist and managerial training
- Language training
- Specific training on occupational safety and environmental issues
Since 2017 PSC has been equipped with a computer system that, in addition to the ordinary staff management, allows to deal with human resources according to a good flow of activities. This begins with identifying the skills required for the role, continues with a gap analisys to assess the deviation from the expected situation, and ends with the definition of a specific training plan.
In Italy there is a system of compensation – English term indicating a set of elements, including aspects such as salary, premiums and benefits – of personnel that provides, in addition to fixed remuneration, the use of tools for variable collective remuneration (result premium).
Although a structured Management By Objectives (MBO) system is not defined, since 2018 a reward system has been defined for working groups that propose and implement improvement projects focused on specific issues.
KPI for monitoring the Group’s performance: training hours
The average number of hours of training provided for each employee, in previous years substantially stable, saw a significant decrease in the year 2020 due to Covid-19 emergency that has complicated the implementation of the planned courses. The Group’s commitment to the formation of resources remains unchanged: therefore, this decline shall be deemed provisional and contextual to the particular situation of 2020.
