International assignments
NH International Mobility Policy
governs the international
mobility of employees and determines the two types of
assignation, short and long term. The short-term assignments
respond to short-term needs and specific projects, and the long-
term assignments address the Company’s long-term needs and
international development of its professionals.
In addition, NH Hotel Group offers indefinite international
transfers. In these cases, based on international experience and
professional career development, it is the employee who applies
for the international position, not considered a traditional
overseas posting.
The concept of the global employee is also fostered. These

In 2013, a total of 76 employees were in one of the situations
described above.

DUAL TRAINING
In September 2012, theMinistry of Education, Culture and Sports
invited NH Hotel Group to be part of a pilot team of companies in
the tourism sector to implement the Dual Professional Training
project in the Region of Madrid, giving the Group the opportunity
to actively collaborate in the training of future professionals in the
sector and contribute its extensive experience.
The initiative’s objective was to create a reserve of professionals
trained in the Group’s high quality standards in order to facilitate
employment of young Spanish people, a group suffering from high
unemployment rates.
The Company was involved from the beginning of the
implementation of the project, providing internships for
45
students
in the following specialties:
Tourism Accommodation
Management and Restaurant Services Management
.
An
example of this involvement is that the Group is already working
with this DUAL training system since it was implemented in
Germany.
