”People First”,<br />

the social charter<br />

issued to all 11,400<br />

<strong>Group</strong> employees<br />

in 2011<br />

Overall strategy and large-scale projects<br />

remain the province of <strong>Bel</strong>’s corporate<br />

head offices. Networking between<br />

regions and countries is encouraged,<br />

as are internal job moves, which are a<br />

source of mutual enrichment. As a part<br />

of its “Talent Factory” program, the<br />

<strong>Group</strong> has made international job moves<br />

a key to its growth, with the goal being<br />

to transfer skills and build local talent<br />

nurseries. In 2011, 81 employees made<br />

internal, international job moves,<br />

up from 69 in 2010.<br />

A mutual commitment for growth<br />

<strong>Bel</strong> decided to draft a social charter<br />

for it 11,400 employees. <strong>The</strong> People<br />

First charter (see sidebar on page 28)<br />

is particular in that it spells out <strong>Bel</strong>’s<br />

commitments to its employees to<br />

ensure their development, as well<br />

as what it expects in return from<br />

its managers and employees.<br />

In this way, the charter explains the<br />

rights and duties of everyone within<br />

the <strong>Bel</strong> community.<br />

81<br />

international job<br />

moves in 2011<br />

<strong>The</strong> People First charter was prepared<br />

in accordance with <strong>Bel</strong>’s way of working.<br />

That is to say it was a collective effort<br />

involving the Human Resources<br />

Department and managers from various<br />

functions and regions. <strong>The</strong> charter was<br />

presented to all <strong>Group</strong> employees<br />

throughout 2011.<br />

At our Tangier plant, 95% of the team<br />

leaders appointed in the past two years<br />

previously worked at the plant as<br />

maintenance technicians.<br />

First BEST graduates<br />

In 2011, 84 operators from various<br />

European plants earned diplomas<br />

from the BEST (<strong>Bel</strong> Employee Shopfl oor<br />

Training) program. BEST arose from<br />

a vital need to develop a specifi cally<br />

dedicated certifi cation program that<br />

recognizes basic knowledge about the<br />

manufacturing process, food safety,<br />

accident prevention, the environment,<br />

and other skills. <strong>The</strong> training program<br />

was deployed in France, the Netherlands<br />

and Portugal in 2011, and is expected to<br />

be extended to other countries in 2012.<br />
