HR Initiatives

We focus on providing training to our employees, which includes civil training, mechanical training, electrical, electronic and instrumentation training, safety training, fabrication programs and training on execution of oil and gas projects. Further, in addition to technical training, we also conduct orientation programmes for new employees, development programmes for junior and middle management, and soft-skill training. In the Financial Year 2024, we recorded 111,089 man hours of training, thus averaging 7+ man days of training per employee.

We aim for all of our employees to share “Afcons’s vision, mission and values” and the following initiatives are aimed at achieving this goal:

  • Involving employees in community development initiatives
  • Anubandh, a monthly e-newsletter with articles by project managers, team members, management, and employee stories
  • A “wall of unity” at our site offices with handprints of employees
  • Employee engagement activities such as sports events, singing competitions and marathons.
  • Site visits by our management team, through which our management team conveys our Company’s long term goals, helping our employees understanding the strategic objectives of our Company
  • We have also streamlined the functioning of our human resources department through several initiatives, including:
    • Digitising personnel records
    • Digitising the recruitment process
    • Establishing an e-onboarding portal
    • Digitising payroll management
    • Robust enterprise resource planning software for human resources functions

Grow with us

Key Afconians are selectively deputed to overseas projects as part of strategic postings. The employees gain global experience and are provided opportunities to inculcate the learnings when they return to India. These learnings are also captured by our Knowledge Management team and the experiences are shared with other employees through classroom-at-site initiatives. We identify high-potential star performers every year, and, they’re given opportunities to explore leadership positions in projects. They are provided adequate support for progression through guided learning and development initiatives.
