ACCIONA’s Code of Conduct

Ensure ethical conduct in our day-to-day activity, provide a
safe and healthy working environment, foster collaboration and
commitment to ACCIONA among our people and third parties, ensure
equal opportunities for all and demand “zero tolerance” towards
conducts involving discrimination, harassment and corruption. These
are the rules that govern the conduct of all of us who work at
ACCIONA and which make up our commitment to a model of sustainable
development.

The Code of Conduct sets out to lay down the values that must
guide the conduct of everyone who works at ACCIONA. They help to
guide the relationships between employees and, in turn, their
relationships with customers, shareholders, suppliers and external
collaborators and with public and private institutions and society
at large. The latest version is now available on our website. We’d
welcome your opinions and comments.

Juan Manuel Cruz
Executive Director of HR Administration

How to pick the right training program for you

An expert course, a Masters, an MBA…making the right choice when
it comes to picking a training program can boost
your career. If you’re looking around and you’re baffled by the
range of options, the following are some of the key
aspects that you should take into account for choosing
wisely:

1. The quality of the teaching staff
2. How interesting the program is
3. The reputation of the institution running the program
4. Job bank service and internships
5. Type of attendance (face-to-face/online)
6. Fees

The importance of each category will depends on what you expect
from this training. Regardless of your goals-build up your
knowledge in a certain specific field, change your career track,
enhance your skills or broaden your contact network- you can
arrange these different categories in order of importance. What do
you think of this list of aspects?  Which one do you consider
most important for choosing the right training program?

Learning through play is not just for kids

In ACCIONA we have launched a pilot project that uses
a game as a learning method.The aim is for employees to get
acquainted with our competency model and the meaning of each
competency – and you could say that it’s child’s play!

The game is easy and lasts just 5 to 10 minutes, time enough for
users to display their skill and agility. After passing each game
level, players receive information on each competence. And to keep
them motivated, they are ranked according to how quickly they get
through the game.

There are many ways to learn and there are certain things that
you can learn by playing. Did you ever learn anything by playing a
game? Do you think it’s an effective way of learning?

Meeting with ACCIONA next Tuesday from 12:00 to 13:00 (CET)

Just like an online mass media channel when they allow users to
chat with a celebrity directly through their website, we’ve decided
to set up the first “Meeting with
ACCIONA” in our Facebook profile for employment (www.facebook.com/Accionaempleo).

The idea is for you to ask any questions you may have on the
selection process and employment search tips (how to improve your
CV, how to get ready for a job interview, etc.).

If you like the idea and want to participate, we encourage you
to access to this link and next Tuesday, between 12:00 and 13:00
use the event’s wall to make all your comments. Everyone’s very
welcome!

What do you most value in a company?

This month we learned that ACCIONA is the Spanish company of
choice for engineering students, according to the Graduate Barometer
2010 Engineering Edition.

Surveys help us to gather the opinion of most of the
respondents. In this particular case, we have come out really well
among the 9,000 students who took part in the survey, and we are
proud of it. However, we are aware that there will be minority
views that were not reflected and people who have not been able to
participate but who have much to contribute.

Because we are continuously on the lookout for opportunities for
improvement, we would like to know your opinion: What do
you most value the most in a company, something you believe we
should take special care of? Wages, relationships with
supervisors; the working environment, social benefits -child care,
dining-, flexible schedules, etc. are just some of the things that
could be taken into consideration.

2.0 Resources in the new training model

ACCIONA‘s new training model for
employees offers a multitude of learning resources:
videos, podcasts, virtual classrooms, e-learning pills and, now,
forums to let students exchange their views.

Staff can now use the Virtual
Campus to access the training resources, which are based on
four main areas: technical, functional, skills and language
training. We’re pleased to say that the initiative has been very
well received.

What do you think – to what extent should the Company worry
about employee training? Do you know any other examples of training
models that you’d like to share?

The importance of listening to employees

Sometimes we spend more time speaking than listening. This also
tends to occur in companies: more often than not, companies do
not listen to employees, who really are the most
helpful because they know both the benefits and areas for
improvement. Addressing external communication only,
neglecting the internal, means missing out on a great
opportunity: a satisfied and committed employee will achieve better
results and will become a company’s best ambassador. 

In ACCIONA we conducted a Satisfaction
and Engagement survey to analyze the degree of satisfaction of
our employees and the results have been positive: 88% of
employees are committed to the results of the company and 85%
are proud to work at ACCIONA. 

Participation is essential – it helps to change things that do
not work. When you are invited to take part in a survey,
 do you take time to fill it in?  Are you aware that the
views of many employees can transform your company?

Deputy Director General, Corporate Resources

Internal mobility: a new job without changing the company

Although professional development depends on each one, the
Personnel Department can also help make it happen. Actually, we
facilitate an internal mobility system allowing ACCIONA employees
to apply on their own initiative for new job opportunities arising
within the Company through an internal selection process.

The opportunity could come up in the same department or location
but it always means a change. In any case, those who have already
been transferred have had a very positive experience and they
strongly recommend it to the rest of their colleagues. In the end,
it signifies a new job but without changing company.

What is your opinion about internal mobility? Do you appreciate
companies offering the opportunity?

Welcome to the new Employment Channel. Re_energize

In keeping with our Re_ campaign, one of the goals of this
channel is to Re_energize. We want to energize students and
professionals to find out about, look into, and get involved with
the ACCIONA project, and turn us into a leading employer.

This new service will allow you to submit your CV and
participate in open selection processes, send offers to your
friends, as well as the possibility of following ACCIONA Empleo
(ACCIONA Employment) on Twitter, LinkedIn or Facebook, and receive
timely information about our new vacancies. This will facilitate
instant, two-way direct communication through your normal social
network.

We also want to promote interaction through this Human Resources
Blog, listening and responding to the interests and concerns of all
professionals interested in the company and the sectors in which we
participate.

The Employment Channel also offers you online self-assessment
tools, information about our participation in jobs forums,
employment advice, our selection process, etc.

Check out the section where several company employees came
together to film video testimonials, an experience that ACCIONA
Infrastructures UTE manager Hector Salvador described as,
“gratifying since it’ll convey to future colleagues the impression
that ACCIONA generates in you. And to encourage those who have the
ability to work and desire to improve themselves professionally
with a unique company.”
