Human Resources Development

We see the development of human resources who possess a creative and innovative spirit and who can succeed on the global stage to be an important management challenge for achieving our growth strategy in a rapidly changing business environment. In light of this, we are developing a human resources development scheme that remains consistent throughout the phases of recruitment, assignment, evaluation, advancement, and education.
As part of this, we established a "Human Resources Development and Training Policy" in 2010 and rearranged our training courses based on it. To ensure its effectiveness, we set up a management committee that allows management to monitor and continuously improve the implementation of our human resources development program.

Initiatives by ENEOS Xplora

  1. 1.Rank-specific and other training

    We provide rank-specific training as well as training to develop core personnel.

  2. 2.Overseas dispatches of young employees

    We send employees--and particularly young employees who have been with us for only a few years--to overseas branch offices for between three and six months with set core assignments. This allows them to learn about the actual practices of the E&P (oil exploration and production) business and to contribute to local operations.

  3. 3.Career development interviews

    We conduct interviews at career milestones to match employees' hopes with the needs of the company and enhance the medium- to-long-term effectiveness of career development. We also provide company-based support to individual employees as they take on the challenges of "becoming who they want to be."

  4. 4.Employee education programs

    Throughout the year, we provide 12 programs aimed primarily at young employees to help them acquire knowledge of E&P business-related technologies, contracts, economic efficiency calculation, and other topics. In-house instructors lead classes using teaching materials they craft on their own.
