In 2022 we have maintained practically the same staff as in 2021 (one less person). 100% of our staff works full time.

Flexibility

ELIX is committed to a hybrid flexible working schedule.

ELIX operates a hybrid flexible working schedule for those positions which, by their nature, allow for this flexibility to be incorporated. 2022 was the first year that ELIX operated this model, which combines aspects of remote work (1 or 2 days) and office work with a degree of flexible hours at the beginning and end of the day.

In this regard, we have a Regulation on flexitime, remote working and teleworking for employees.A fin de evaluar el grado de resultado y el funcionamiento del sistema, se ha creado una Comisión de Seguimiento específica que se reúne periódicamente (con carácter general, de forma trimestral o siempre que los miembros lo requieran).

ELIX has drawn up a Guide to Good Practice to ensure the successful implementation of the new hybrid flexible working schedule.

Recognition of the workforce’s commitment

Recognition of the workforce’s commitment and creation of new clubs.

In 2022, ELIX held its 1st Recognition Gala aimed at thanking all those employees considered a fundamental part of the company’s success.

Within the framework of the mission of recognizing and promoting the professional and personal development of employees, two new clubs were presented during the gala: ELIX 25 and ELIX NOVAS 3.

The ELIX 25 club was created with the aim of recognizing and highlighting the fidelity, loyalty and commitment of all those employees who have been at ELIX for more than 25 years.

ELIX NOVAS 3 aims to bring together those employees who have been at ELIX for 3 years or less.These clubs will be launched in 2023.

Training for development

We have a training and development system in place that focuses on the personal and professional growth of the company’s workforce. There is a procedure in place that ensures that all the training needs of the workforce are managed and carried out efficiently and in a manner appropriate to each situation.

Health and safety are vital

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.

In 2022, we rolled out our Strategic Health and Safety Plan 2022-2024 and worked on the implementation of ISO 45001 for the health and safety management system in a bid to obtain the certification in 2023.

Strategic projects:

  • Implementation of the ISO 45001 health and safety standard. At the end of 2022 we passed the pre-assessment audit. The goal is to strengthen the current safety management system according to the recommended standards and create a safe and sustainable work environment.
  • Continue with the development of a process safety management system to improve the safety and reliability of equipment and facilities.
