Recruitment Policy
The recruitment policy of Koza Gold Operation is determined by giving a priority for development of the region. For employment of new personnel, there is a process of recruitment starting from the nearest villages. Having established the criteria for the recruitment of new personnel, first priority is given to our neighboring villages then followed by other surrounding villages. As the recruitment requirements are not met locally, then the applicants from the nearest city, province and Turkey are assessed respectively. For example, for Cukuralan operations, priority is given to the applicants from the villages of Çukuralan, Nebiler, Gökçeağıl, and Kaplan, which are along the border to mine site, then the villages of Kıratlı, Kocaoba, Samanlık, Yenice, Çağlan, Mazılı, and Kozak. If suitable candidates can not be found to meet the requirements in these locations, search will be conducted at Bergama and Dikili regions to recruit qualified personnel.
Within the guidelines of this policy, local recruitment account for 87% of our workforce for Cukuralan, Ovacik and Kaymaz and 82% for Mastra Operations and remaining 13- 17 % represent the group of professional employees from outside the local area.
