Sustainability
Responsible
Employer
At Gurit, we are committed to upholding fundamental rights and translating our values into responsible practices with high ethical standards. Attracting and retaining a skilled, motivated and a high performing workforce is essential for our success. This means we must offer an outstanding and inclusive work environment for all our employees, considering location of work, culture of our teams, and opportunities to train and grow.
Our policies and systems form the foundation of our social standards and are regularly assessed for improvement.
Social Policy
Gurit promotes fair and equal employment, free from discrimination of any kind. We ensure equal opportunities regardless of gender, sexual orientation, age, or origin.
MyGurit Human Resources Database
The MyGurit HR database is essential for managing human resources and tracking social performance. Employment data from all sites is collected and analyzed by our HR team.
Learning Management System (LMS)
Our LMS is available to non-shopfloor employees at all locations, offering a wide range of courses, with year on year increasing participation. This growth reflects our commitment to ongoing professional development.
Performance and Career Development Reviews
Performance and career development reviews are conducted annually at most sites. This process includes reviewing job descriptions, key goals, job requirements, and training opportunities, as well as evaluating performance and completing a competence matrix to support professional growth.
Diversity, Equity & Inclusion
At Gurit, we are dedicated to upholding human rights and promoting equal employment opportunities, irrespective of sex, race, color, national origin, age, health, or any other characteristic that could be a basis for discrimination. We have a zero-tolerance policy for discrimination, harassment, bullying, humiliation, oppression, or any form of offense. Fair employment practices are applied consistently across our entire organization and our initiatives are key to maintaining a respectful and equitable workplace.
Training and Education
Training equips our employees with job-specific skills and supports their career growth. A range of topics are covered by our training programs, many of which help employees identify and manage risks they are exposed to while doing their job or help us with social risk management. For example: the Gurit Code of Conduct, strategy, cybersecurity, data protection, leadership, diversity, as well as safety training, specific product training and many more task-specific programs.
