Sustainability Report 2015
Employee retention
The retention of our staff, i.e. ensuring that dedicated and motivated knowledge carriers stay with the company, is a crucial factor in Hannover Re's success. Hannover Re again took numerous steps in the year under review in order to preserve our relatively low staff turnover rate by industry standards.
Through individual part-time models and opportunities for tele-working we help our staff combine family and career. At the Hannover location we have set up a daycare facility for infants up to the age of 3.
With a view to assessing the satisfaction of its worldwide workforce, Hannover Re carried out a Group-wide employee survey for the first time in the year under review. In so doing, we achieved one of the goals of our Sustainability Strategy 2015-2017. What is more, we are gratified by the favourable outcome reflected in the high level of overall satisfaction reported by our staff.
