Alcoa Brazil One of the Best Companies to Start a Career

16.05.2012  |  Business Wire


Alcoa (NYSE:AA) in Brazil was selected as one of the 30 best companies
to start a career, according to Vocâ S/A magazine, Brazil's
leading human resources publication. As a top company, Alcoa is included
as a 'Business Champion' in Vocâ's annual career guide. The guide is
geared to young professionals just starting their careers to identify
which are the best companies to join.


Selection to the list involves completing a detailed survey on career
development, work-life balance and other aspects of human resources.
This step was followed by interviews with randomly selected employees to
assess their satisfaction with the company. Alcoa received high marks in
several categories including professional growth, career and
recognition, quality of life, working significance and identify with
corporate values and objectives.


'This award is significant because it recognizes our efforts to attract,
develop and retain talented employees,' said Michael Barriere, Alcoa
Vice President Human Resources. 'We encourage our employees to develop
and contribute to their full potential. Alcoa exists today because of
the talent of 22-year-old Charles Martin Hall, who developed the
aluminum making process, which is still used today.'


This is the first year Alcoa participated in the survey.
