“For Nornickel, respect for human rights is not just about observing the Russian Constitution and generally recognized standards of international law. It is a philosophy enabling each employee to realize their potential, live a decent life and work under appropriate conditions. The well-being of employees and all stakeholders is the utmost value and main equity that contributes towards our company’s sustainable development”.
LARISA ZELKOVA
Senior Vice President – Head of HR, Social Policy, and Public Relations
“Nornickel is a large company with 80,000 employees working at production sites in remote regions of Russia. These territories have extreme weather conditions and the nature of the work here requires maximum concentration. A company placing such demands on employees naturally needs to demonstrate the same level of responsibility, loyalty and respect. Therefore, we pay great attention to decent wages, comfortable living conditions, and opportunities for self-fulfillment. That is what human rights are about. Their observance and protection is the company’s obligation and goal.
