Ormat recognizes that the continued competitiveness and success of our company depends on our ability to attract, retain and develop employees to their fullest potential. We approach this responsibility with a human resources philosophy that promotes equitable and competitive salaries across our company, as well as generous employee benefits, including health insurance and retirement savings plans. Ormat prides itself on being an open and caring company – one where every employee feels valued and comfortable asking questions, sharing opinions and expressing concerns. Employees are regularly encouraged to stay connected and engaged through regular meetings with their supervisors, in group sessions and town hall meetings and at our annual general meetings. We invest in the long-term success of all employees by offering professional development opportunities designed to help individuals excel at their current responsibilities, and to advance in their careers. Our organization also places a high priority on ensuring that inter-cultural communication training is provided for employees working in international contexts. In addition, we provide in-house training to increase awareness of and help prevent workplace issues such as bribery, sexual harassment and other unethical behavior and operate a telephone line that facilitates the anonymous reporting of any such breaches. Safety training is another priority area for Ormat’s operating employees. All must complete annual course work aligned with the company’s safety procedures, to ensure our employees understand how they are expected to perform their roles. Completion of annual coursework is mandatory and employee knowledge is tested following the completion of each course. Ormat’s overarching aim is for every employee and contractor to experience an injury and incident-free workplace; ongoing training and reinforcement of safe behaviors and practices is the key to achieving this objective. At year-end 2013, Ormat employed a total of 1,123 people throughout our worldwide operations. Of these employees more than 80% were male, a gender distribution reflecting that of other utility sector companies where engineering, manufacturing and operations-related roles are typically more prevalent. Ormat Technologies, Inc. Under 30 2012 2013 30 to 50 Over 50 Ormat’s overall turnover rate increased from 7% in 2012 to 20% in 2013. This is attributed to an operational efficiency initiative, particularly in the power plants. Ormat works to attract and retain a diverse employee population by engaging employees of all ages. 2012-2013 Sustainability Report Ormat and Employees Reach Out Following Typhoon Haiyan The 2013 Pacific typhoon season exerted a huge toll on many parts of Southeast Asia, but none more devastating than Typhoon Haiyan, which is among the most destructive and intense tropical cyclones on record. The storm hit in November 2013, creating especially significant damage in the Philippines, where more than 6,300 people lost their lives and where hundreds of millions of dollars in infrastructure damage was sustained. Ormat has a long-standing connection to the Philippines through previous ownership of the Leyte Optimization power plant under a Build, Operate and Transfer (BOT) agreement. When Ormat’s ownership of the Leyte plant ended in 2007, several employees from the facility continued working in other Ormat plants in the US and Kenya.Of these employees, eleven are currently employed with Ormat. Ormat’s reaction to the typhoon was swift and supportive. Both Ormat management and the rest of Ormat’s employees wanted to provide assistance to our Philippine colleagues and their families who were impacted by the typhoon. When the typhoon hit, Ormat immediately paid for airline tickets and $2000 for other expenses for all Philippine employees who wished to return home to help their families deal with the storm’s aftermath.Our company also established a relief fund providing all worldwide employees with the option to contribute by making an in-kind donation of personal vacation days. Ormat matched the value of each donation, which ultimately grew to US $50,000. Yoram Bronicki, chairman Ormat Technologies, Inc., “The Ormat group of companies is a family and families care for each other in times of need. We are humbled by the generosity our employees demonstrated and hope that our collective contribution will help mitigate the impacts caused by this devastating storm.“ The 50 MW Leyte Optimization geothermal power plant in the Philippines 33
