We continuously invest in the development and empowerment of our people, a community in which individual skills and talents complement each other synergistically, enabling us to innovate, grow and compete effectively in the marketplace. For this reason, we are committed to ensuring the professional development of each individual and promoting their personal well-being. With this in mind, we adopt a set of cross-cutting tools and processes to cultivate a collaborative and inclusive work environment characterized by open dialogue, continuous feedback and a genuine appreciation for diversity.

 

These elements underpin our People Strategy, which, by aligning HR and business objectives, is our primary tool for creating a business climate in which resources feel motivated to perform at their best and ready to meet the challenges of an ever-changing marketplace. Our commitment to effectively implementing the Group's People Strategy has also been recognized by the Top Employers Institute, a company that has certified the quality of its people management and development processes and work environment, including Fincantieri in the pool of companies certified Top Employer Italia 2024.

 

An integral part of the People Strategy is our Employee Value Proposition (EVP) People on Board, which represents the unique set of benefits and values we offer our employees. It guides the journey of our people at every stage, from attraction, recruitment and onboarding, to the processes of development, professional growth and people dialogue. With an integrated and comprehensive approach, we ensure that our employees are adequately prepared to address the evolving needs of our business and contribute to our long-term success.

Employee Engagement Survey

We cultivate a culture of dialogue, creating relationships based on trust and transparency, with the aim of listening to everyone's needs and requirements, improving the quality of working life, and gathering and valuing suggestions and ideas.


To do this, we have implemented a valuable tool, the Employee Engagement Survey, a questionnaire addressed to all Group employees (regardless of contractual level and work location). The purpose of the Employee Engagement Survey is to:

-  assess the involvement and motivation of our people;

-  listen to their opinions;

- measure the quality of the organizational climate;

- initiate a path to improve the employee experience.


Specifically, the survey explores different key aspects of the organization, such as for example, engagement, management effectiveness, employee experience, and confidence in the future. We respond to the suggestions and observations collected through the questionnaire by defining an action plan, which is articulated on different levels (Group, country, individual organizational unit).


The 2023 Employee Engagement Survey featured the participation of more than 16,000 employees, achieving an overall response rate of 83%. Compared to 2022, the survey showed a marked improvement in all survey dimensions, with the overall engagement rate increasing by 3 percentage points (75%). In particular, the dimensions Safety, Confidence in the Future and Engagement were confirmed as strengths.


The positive results reflect the ongoing commitment to improving overall employee satisfaction and experience, with a focus on cultural change, giving centrality to people also through increased responsibility and consequent empowerment of them, as also defined in the new hybrid and flexible organizational model based on Work FOR Future objective-based work, introduced during 2023.
