“É tetra, é tetra, é tetra” (as Galvão Bueno said). Following the steps of our Brazilian soccer team, Vallourec impressed once again in the Prêmio Ser Humano 2022, an award promoted by the Associação Brasileira de Recursos Humanos (ABRH-MG). That is it! On December 1, the Company won two awards in the Development and Organizational Excellence category. This is the fourth consecutive time that Vallourec wins an award.

According to Talent Manager Lucimar Rezende, the recognition reinforced the commitment of the Vallourec team to the quality of its processes and the genuine and continuous care of the people. "The Company is awarded for its ESG practices by promoting a psychologically safe environment for Diversity. Moreover, winning this award is a recognition for the participation, engagement, and belongingness of all the employees who somehow made the Diversity Dialogs" possible, Rezende states.

Remuneration, Benefits, and Labor Relations Manager Erick Faria agrees with Lucimar: the award is a symbol of collective commitment. "Being a highlight in the Prêmio Ser Humano for two valuable projects is rewarding. The award reinforces the commitment Vallourec has to continuous improvement. It shows we are on the right way, towards a more modern field, ahead of its time."

For those who do not know, the Prêmio Ser Humano awards initiatives for people development, the incentive to creative thinking, and the identification of new talents. Moreover, the award intends to encourage and recognize differentiated, innovative contributions to people management that take into account the interests of people, organizations, and society.

The award is already in its 21st edition and is one of the most relevant ones in Minas Gerais. With it, big companies have the opportunity to share and know best practices in other organizations. That is great, isn’t it?
