Snam can create “good jobs”, in quality terms, because it is a capital-intensive company that is spread over a wide portion of the national territory, because it has activities requiring qualifications and specialisation and because it can offer stable and constant employment.

To work at Snam requires basic skill in operating technologies, control systems and information systems and procedures that are ever more complicated. As a result, about half of the more than 6,000 employees of the group have technical specialist degrees. University graduates, mainly in engineering and economics, amount to nearly 11% of the corporate population and the strategic projects of European networks development involve further enhancement of the skills needed to handle the complexities of the work.

A total of 96% of Snam’s people have permanent employment contracts and about 1,600, about a quarter of the total workforce, are employed in Southern Italy.

As of the end of 2012 the workforce level remained substantially unchanged. During the year 99 people joined the workforce, about half of whom from the job market, and about 160 departed, about 48% of whom with incentives, 25% were transferred to other companies (non-consolidated, the Eni group, transfers under tenders), 5% resigned, 5% were laid off and 17% left otherwise. Hours worked in 2012 totalled more than 9.9 million, with an absenteeism of 622,928 hours (of which 55.8% hours due to sickness, 1.5% hours due to accidents and 42.7% hours due to other reasons).

The average age of the workforce of the group is about 49 years and the average seniority of service is about 23 years.

DEMOGRAPHIC DIVERSITY: EMPLOYEES PER AGE BRACKET (No)

Snam guarantees all workers the right to freely express their thoughts, join associations and engage in union activities. National collective labour agreements apply to all Snam workers (Energy and Petroleum Industry Agreement for the Transportation, Storage and Regasification sectors, and the Gas and Water Agreement for distribution). In 2012, 51.65% of employees were members of a trade union.

Special meeting spaces are provided for union activities to be engaged in, and workers enjoy dedicated leave, as provided for by current regulations and the applicable industry agreement. All workers can submit topics of interest to them to the unitary union representative bodies (RSU), which are periodically replaced through elections.

During 2012 relations between Snam and the labour organisations continued on both the national and local level, with 190 meetings. The main topics involved the reorganisations in progress within the individual companies and the development of group integration processes.
