Promoting Local Employment Opportunities

As a significant employer in Trinidad and Tobago, we believe that it is important that our workforce reflect the diversity and culture of our country. We also understand that one of the greatest investments that we can make in our community is to employ local talent to support the community economy and build important skills and knowledge.

For these reasons, Atlantic LNG has adopted a hiring practice to promote local employment opportunities. When a position within the company becomes available, our guidelines dictate that we first look to our existing employees that may be ready and qualified for advancement within the company. If the position cannot be filled by our existing pool of talent, we will seek local applicants. Only in exceptional circumstances, we will seek applicants internationally.

Our employee numbers bear out the success of our hiring practices. Of our 680 employees, twenty-three percent are from our local community of Point Fortin and only seventeen employees are not native to Trinidad and Tobago.
