OUR TEAM BY TIMETABLE
(31/12/2020)
In 2021 we have increased the workforce by 3.9%. 100% of our staff work full time.
Lean culture is the base of our collaborators’ personal and professional development. It determines the way we resolve the daily challenges of our organization.
Talent attraction is related to the expectations of new generations in terms of how a company works and the positive social and environmental impact it can have, as well as the incorporation of young people into technical degree programmes and training courses. ELIX works to recruit and retain talent internally through training programmes and continuous feedback, and externally through partnerships with research centres, universities and high schools.
ELIX Polymers promotes the personal and professional development of its collaborators through the LEAN philosophy. LEAN is a method of improvement and continuous learning based on a series of values, principles and techniques that help to strengthen our management processes, and at the same time, promote the development of our team of professionals.
With our Focus Manager Project, we strengthen the leadership capacities of specifically-identified team managers and staff, with the aim of improving communication, emotional intelligence and change management
FLEXIBILITY
We are committed to a flexible, hybrid work timetable for those positions that allow for it.
This model combines remote-working and in-office working, with a degree of timetable flexibility at the start and end of the working day. We also created a Ten Commandments of Good Practice for successfully implementing this new flexible hybrid work timetable, which complements the existing guidelines on digital disconnection and remote working.
We work to foster the inclusion of women in a field where women's presence has traditionally been low.
At ELIX we continue to be fully committed to equal opportunities without gender-based discrimination. We have anEquality Commission We have an Equality Committee, which has drafted a Situation Assessment and is developing the second edition of the Equality Plan for 2022.
Women’s presence in the company and in governing organs is on the rise

ELIX's commitment to the health of it collaborators and the safety of its processes remains intact
We have a Corporate policy for job safety and the prevention of serious accidents (HSE), whose aim is to avoid injury and illness, prevent job and process-related accidents, and minimise exposure to risks posed by job activities.
We have a Health and Safety Committee which meets periodically to deal with health and safety actions that have been carried out, exceptional issues, or proposals presented by colleagues
Through a management system we define the responsibilities, goals and actions related to occupational health and safety. The scope of this system includes all ELIX employees and activities, as well as the service companies who carry out their activities in our facilities.
Our health and safety measures during the COVID-19 pandemic have allowed us to maintain our production facility operations and satisfy customer demand with no infections in the company.
Managing the pandemic has meant defining numerous internal procedures according to the legislation and protocols of the Spanish Ministry of Health, the Catalan government (the Generalitat), the OHS Surveillance Service and sector-specific guides published by FEIQUE for the different areas of the chemical industry. These internal procedures have always adapted to the progression of official announcements, as well as the different stages of the pandemic.
At ELIX, we have a global vision of Occupational Health and Safety where both aspects are closely related and approached with a common strategy. Our healthy company strategy, simultaneously emphasises physical, social and emotional well-being. The six core concepts of its structure encompass all areas related to the health and safety of both the organization and its social environment.
