The company was presented the award at the energy and industry sector’s 12th anniversary annual Qatarisation review, recently held at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel.
Qapco vice chairman and CEO Mohamed Yousef al-Mulla stated: “Qapco is fully committed to the Qatarisation policy created by the wise vision of HH the Emir Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa al-Thani and we support the Qatarisation strategy as directed by HE Dr Mohamed bin Saleh al-Sada.”
“This award means so much as it recognises the hard work and commitment by all Qapco staff to implement a highly advanced level of quality Qatarisation. Also, the main goal of our people strategy is to create the right environment that will not only attract and recruit quality Qatari citizens but also develop and retain them and by doing so establish Qapco’s reputation as an employer of choice - this award is proof that we are well on the way to achieving this,” he added.
Al-Mulla noted: “Qapco has embarked on a programme of huge expansion - we have the new LDPE3 plant coming online early next year and have just signed an agreement with QP to develop and build Qapco 2 in Ras Laffan. These two projects alone will ensure that the recruitment and development of quality Qatari employees will play a vital role in Qapco’s future.”
Human resources and learning manager Nasser al-Hajri said: “Winning an award for the third year in a row is a fantastic achievement as the competition this year was even harder than before. Qapco is proud of its legacy of learning and development and is committed to providing its employees, especially our Qatari employees, with world-class training.”
