Young Citizen Program

The firm employs youngsters under the Young Citizen Program operated by the Government of the State of São Paulo. This initiative seeks to offer youngsters the opportunity for their first employment.
Initially the youngsters have initially been offered temporary employment under the scheme but given the excellent performance of the trainees, the firm has subsequently offered them full time employment, offering twice the minimum salary stipulated under the pilot scheme.
