Human Resources at Etex aims to be an enabler that works
in two ways. Help our people develop and unlock their
full potential, while simultaneously boost the agility and
performance of our worldwide organisation.
local management at all our companies
worldwide in the coming year.
Measuring engagement
In 2017, we announced that engagement
will become a non-financial performance
indicator. As such, throughout 2017, we
prepared the rollout of a company-wide
engagement survey. This exercise will
measure employees’ commitment to the
company’s goals and objectives. An indicator
for defining further action, the engagement
survey will be carried out mid-2018.
qqEnhancing the competences of our HR professionals
remains key to placing our employees at the helm of
their careers.
The Ajaccio Hospital project in Corsica was a
significant achievement for Siniat France, as
we developed our own collaborative Building
Information Management or BIM technology
to use for its construction. BIM technology is
redefining how buildings are designed, built
and operated. We are excited to be leading
the way in using this digital solution.”

PIONEER TO LEAD
Our HR Roadmap 2020 ties together
Etex’s strategic priorities and company
values. It outlines tangible projects to
deliver on three ambitions:
1 encourage a cohesive Etex culture that
strengthens our employees’ engagement
in support of business goals.
2 identify and develop our leaders and
enable them to be drivers of success
and excellence.

3 empower employees by providing highly
effective and responsive HR services.
Etex employees spent 4,943 hours on the
Talent2Grow platform in 2017.
One Etex
culture
Throughout 2017, we upped the ante in
further integrating our three Etex values:
Passion for Excellence, Connect and
Care and Pioneer to Lead. Launched
the previous year, these values form the
backbone of our identity and culture.
Their inspiring energy helps employees
around the globe to grow personally and
professionally. The values promote shared
ways of working, behaving and setting
expectations to deliver on our three-pillar
agenda of profitable growth, operational
excellence and engaged people.
The goal for 2017 was to put every
employee in contact with the Etex values
during at least one interactive, face-toface
session. The Etex Values Box game
has been a great success in introducing
employees to the values and helps
translate them into expected behaviours.
Now available in blue- and white-collar
versions, the game asks employees to
apply the values to navigate common
workplace scenarios.
We also embedded the values in Etex’s
leadership model. Doing so empowers our
senior leaders and managers to nurture the
Etex identity within their teams and link
these behaviours with business objectives.
Induction programme
To give newly arriving employees a clear
understanding of and sense of belonging
to Etex’s culture, values and priorities, we
developed an Etex induction programme.
The programme will be rolled out by
