Human Resource Development
The upper echelons of ICL’s management (constituting approximately 10% of ICL’s human resources) are participating in a performance management process based on goals, performance evaluation, and group and individual development plans deriving from them. By the beginning of 2018, this process is expected to enhance the relationship between performance and compensation, and to cover about 80% of ICL’s personnel. \
ICL has various plans and training programs in place for its employees and managers. We are diligently working with our employees and managers in order to create a more fulfilling workplace. We are already creating the infrastructure to do so. You can read more on the implementation of the Success Factors in ICL here.
We have created various programs and mentorships in order to further develop and enhance the abilities of our employees and managers. We try and develop our management within the company. Therefore we provide multiple opportunities to excel. We have also created mentorship programs for women.
Promoting New Skills
Apprenticeship Programs at ICL
ICL promotes skills among high school students in collaboration with industrial schools that operate under the auspices of Israel’s Ministry of Industry and Commerce. We employ around 60 11th and 12th grade students from four high schools in Israel’s Negev region. Each student that works for ICL is assigned an ICL employee as a mentor, who accompanies the student along his/her path, whether in terms of professional instruction or practical training. In their schools, the students study a trade and are granted a certificate in one of the following fields: electronics, welding, mechanics machinery and autotronics (automotive electronics).
