Corporate welfare and a healthy work/life balance
The new welfare system was developed along three guidelines:
- introducing new initiatives aimed at emerging needs;
- defining interventions based on the requirements of the various bands of company personnel;
- making people aware, informed and involved.
Snam’s corporate welfare system is constantly evolving to get increasingly closer to the real needs of individual people. In 2016, in-depth investigations into company personnel and the services provided were completed, by listening to employees through questionnaires, focus groups and surveys which led to a new welfare system being defined.
SnamMY, the new welfare portal, accessible from anywhere using any device, was launched during the year in order to improve communication between the company and its people.
