Employees

Diversity and equal opportunities

• The Société Générale Group supports diversity and talents, develops the skills of its employees through training and internal mobility as well as supporting social dialogue and social security.
• In terms of the projects led by the Human Resources Department, KB is introducing various processes and tools for various groups of employees. Thanks to the diversified approach, these tools better react to the individual expectations and requirements of employees.
• The main aim in the field of career development is to offer all employees the same opportunities. We are aware that certain categories of employees find themselves in a specific situation of stage of their life, which may restrict them in development of their career. So we do not forget about about employees on maternity and paternity leave, older employees, the handicapped, students and graduates.

Specific populations

Employees on maternity or paternity leave

• In terms of the process of career management, we devote a special amount of care to employee on maternity and paternity leave – we always try to find a solution, how to combine the interests of the bank with the interests of the employees, thereby harmonizing their professional and personal life.
• Our aim is to provide these employees with conditions for their smooth return after their maternity and paternity leave and to allow them to more easily get back onto their career path.
• We are open to alternative workloads – we allow for part time work, flexible working hours, work from home or job sharing among other things.

Students

• We cooperate with the important Czech universities, student organisations (AIESEC, IAESTE, CEMS) and also some colleges.
• Long-term cooperation in this field constantly brings success stories, as can be seen by the fact that we have won the title “Most desirable employer of the year for university graduates” several times now.
• Thanks to this cooperation, we present ourself not only as a perspective employer for young graduates.
• We offer students work experience during studies, support in terms of various university projects, financial support, lecturing and other activities.
• In terms of international cooperation with SG, we participate in various projects
  • VIE (Volontaires Internacionaux en Entreprise), via which university students and graduates can gain professional experience in international companies
  • “Citizen Act” – business game focus on corporate social responsibility.

Talents

For us to constantly improve our services and come up with new products, we must provide our employees with sufficient space for development of their potential. By supporting talented employees and developing their competences, we are thinking about the future.

Everyone has the possibility of becoming a talent – show us your quality and that you have got what it takes!

Education and development

We provide to our employees with various training programmes and courses to expand their skills and qualifications for their existing positions or for preparation for career development in terms of the SG/KB Group.

The main areas of education in KB are:

• development of commercial skills (above all sales skills)
• development of management and soft skills
• integration and development programmes (integration of newcomers and special development programmes for existing employees)
• specialised training (IT, Risk, Finance, Marketing, etc.)

Benefits for employees

We think in advance – we support financial security for our employees for the future:

• We have balanced offer of long-term benefits (a contribution to supplementary pension insurance and life insurance) as well as short-term benefits (lunch vouchers, sport. culture, travelling, health, education)
• We provide financial aid to employees in the event of long-term inability to work and social aid in the event of unexpected occurrences

Work-life balance

• We think about how to help employees harmonise their professional and personal life.
• If the position in question allows for a certain amount of flexibility, we offer various forms of alternative workloads.
• We also offer flexibility and active participation in the field of benefits.
• We care about society – we organise voluntary blood donation for our employees and thus help to save human lives.

Customer surveys

Employees are our greatest wealth and we care about their opinions. In order for us to be better able to target their requirements and wishes, we use internal surveys and thus gain valuable feedback from employees regarding various topics.
