he HR function ensures close, local presence with employees in the field and provides managers with support to improve management quality. It listens closely to employees so that all of them feel supported in their day-to-day work and career.

Within the functions, the Career and Skills Development Departments manage career development for key positions and skills development using a global worldwide approach.
