Compensations
PetroKazakhstan has implemented a system that ensures internal fairness of remuneration by providing clear instructions on how to administer it within the wages pattern. Breakdown of positions in grades is determined by the nature of the work performed, the complexity of the work, the level of responsibility, etc. This system also maintains external fairness and competitiveness of remuneration levels by monitoring the labor market.
Along with maintaining a competitive level of basic salaries, PetroKazakhstan also ensures that salaries meet the requirements of the relevant legislation.
The corporate bonus system was designed to reward the sustainable development of the company. The condition for paying bonuses is the fulfillment of the main production tasks.
