Based on a comprehensive program and improvements to the standards and human resources management practices, Hrvatski Telekom won the Employer Partner certificate again this year. The certificate is awarded by the independent consulting organization SELECTIO Group.
"For HT, from an HR perspective, this year was marked by numerous programs and initiatives that contribute to the development of our business and the great satisfaction of our employees. One of these is definitely the establishment of a career path for the non-frontline part of the organization. Having a clearly and transparently structured career path enabled the advancement of more than 1,000 employees in all parts of the company. We are proud that Hrvatski Telekom has maintained a very high position according to the criteria of the Employer Partner certificate, especially since the standards that measure the success of the HR function have been stricter this year.
It is important to us that through the certification process we achieved the highest number of points precisely in those aspects that our employees perceive as the greatest advantages of working in our company: the possibility of advancement, transfer of knowledge within the company, flexible ways of working, a large number of available benefits, a culture that supports innovation and opportunities to join various development programs, including retraining that results in a complete career change within the company. This motivates us to continue designing such programs and initiatives", said Anamarija Minarski, director of the Competence Development, Employment, and Human Resources Development Department at Hrvatski Telekom.
"Hrvatski Telekom has particularly distinguished itself in transformation, development, and growth. We praise the defined competencies of the future necessary for realizing a long-term strategy. HT also stands out for its culture that supports innovation and the introduction of retraining and improvement programs to which all employees can apply, which, given today's business requirements, is an extremely important part of any organization's operations," said Lara Šubić Šuša, manager of the Employer Partner project.
The Employer Partner certification team evaluated HR processes and how they affect the employee experience through seven key stages: attraction and recruitment, onboarding and employee development, employee engagement and satisfaction, transformation and development, retention and rewarding, and employee departure and return. This evaluation method equally values both employer's and employee's perspectives, and the high level of points achieved proves that HR processes ensure the achievement of top business results through engaged and satisfied people.
The methodology of the Employer Partner certificate was designed in 2005 and has been continuously revised since then.
