This program allows our site personnel to maintain their training applied to the construction industry (use of lifting platforms, forklifts, first aid, confined spaces, contamination and others). Working time is allocated for the upgrades of each of these trainings.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Our office staff can count on our continuing training program to meet the criteria of professional orders, keep up to date with new IT and take advantage of seminars on new developments in the construction field. We have also developed a job training plan and implemented a mentoring program for new employees.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Many social activities are organized on a regular basis to provide opportunities for our employees to develop bonds and be happy in their work environment. A range of sports subscriptions and entrance fees are made available to our employees to enable them to practice physical activities while socializing.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;grid&#8221; angled_section=&#8221;no&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; background_image_as_pattern=&#8221;without_pattern&#8221; background_image=&#8221;21&#8243; z_index=&#8221;&#8221; padding_top=&#8221;150&#8243; padding_bottom=&#8221;150&#8243;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;11&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; qode_css_animation=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">We are proud of our corporate culture based on principles that value cultural diversity.<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;grid&#8221; angled_section=&#8221;no&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; background_image_as_pattern=&#8221;without_pattern&#8221; z_index=&#8221;&#8221; padding_top=&#8221;70&#8243; padding_bottom=&#8221;70&#8243; background_color=&#8221;#f5f5f5&#8243;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1587935841722{margin-right: 10px !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2>Our diversity policy<\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;30px&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">BTL has adopted a diversity policy which reflects its commitment to the creation of a work environment where individual differences and contributions of all employees are recognized and valued.
