#ARCTIC. #SIBERIA. THIS IS TAIMYR. On June 1, Norilsk Nickel was awarded the most significant federal award in the field of work with people – HR Brand of the Year by the recruitment company Headhunter.
Norilsk Nickel became the winner in two categories at once: Federation Grand (federal scale projects implemented by companies with more than 5,000 employees with the project Present for the Future: Developing Engineering Potential) and Region (projects implemented in one region of the Russian Federation with the project Is There Life on Rotational Shift?).
The HR Brand of the Year award is being held for the 11th time and is the largest and most authoritative platform for demonstrating the best practices in working with employees.
This year, 96 projects took part in the competition, 53 of them reached the final, and 21 projects won awards in the main and additional categories.
Winning companies are traditionally trendsetters in a particular area.
As a result of the company’s systematic investments in the social sphere, personnel policy and regional development, a stable increase in the level of the company’s employees involvement was ensured. The result of Nornickel’s thoughtful policy was an increase of interest in the industry and the company among job seekers, and at the same time an increase in the Norilsk population and the applicants of Polar State University.
In 2022, 44 percent more candidates sent their resumes to Nornickel than the year before, and seven times more than in 2019, traffic on the career site increased by 22 percent.
“It seems that in conditions of uncertainty, the most critical tasks become priorities, and the issues of culture and personnel development, processes automation can be postponed until later, for more prosperous days. But, as practice shows, it is in times of crisis that the foundation for future success is laid, and companies that, in spite of everything, continue to invest in personnel, in the HR brand, bring themselves closer to success. All those who submitted their project for the award this year are already winners, and your main award is the results of business, the people’s well-being , their gratitude and confidence in the future. I would like to thank you for inexhaustible energy, for unbending focus and for your optimism”, Dmitry Sergienkov, hh.ru CEO, congratulated the winners.
