The aim of this department is to fully support the OMV Group’s Strategy 2030 by prioritizing key aspects that enable us to unlock our organization’s full potential. The new name points to the department’s aim and purpose and emphasizes that people and culture are central to achieving the targets defined in our strategy. We developed a new People & Culture Strategy in 2022, which fully supports the transformation of OMV and is focused around “People make it happen”. The core of the new People & Culture Strategy is our purpose, i.e., “Re-inventing essentials for sustainable living.” We have developed four strategic drivers: Employee Experience, Growing Talent, Organizational Evolution, and New Ways of Working. These are all powered by a solid foundation of Transformational Leadership, driven by our leaders. As such, the statement “People make it happen” not only creates the right working environment in which our employees can thrive, but also ensures that they can further develop their skill sets to meet the demands of our dynamic business. The various initiatives connected to the People & Culture Strategy, like the launch of our new OMV Group Values, created a big impact. Building and retaining a talented and skilled team of employees for international and integrated growth is a key factor in the success of the Group’s strategy. We are committed to creating an environment in which every employee can learn, grow, connect, and collaborate, as well as live a safe and healthy life. OMV’s core commitments to its employees are detailed in the Code of Conduct. These include promoting learning and development and creating an environment where people can develop professionally and fulfil their personal aspirations in line with our business needs.
