DEFINITION

Employability is the capability of an employee to competently exercise one or more functions within the employing company, within a different company in the sector, or to have access to potential opportunities in the labor market throughout her/his life.

In a responsible spirit of anticipation and adaptation to change, the social partners recommend taking all necessary initiatives to improve the individual skills and performance of employees, and thus their employability according to the CSR Code of Conduct in the sugar industry signed in 2003 (standards 2 & 7). The responsibility of developing this global approach will be jointly assumed by the employers and the employees.

Since the Code of Conduct on Corporate Social Responsibility is the tool of a lively and dynamic process, the progress on employability will regularly be assessed by the social partners within the frame of the CSR implementation report, with an annual update of the relevant examples of good practice.
