Our commitment in Algeria is based on our commitment to support the country's nationalization program. In 2010, we invested US $ 7 million in the skills training center Hassi Messaoud Construction, which is able to train and qualify local youth. More than 800 people graduated from five technical disciplines: instrumentation, electricity, mechanics, pipe making and welding.
We also modernized a training center in the city of In Salah, built a craft center in El Merk to qualify graduates from local high schools and organized English courses for engineers provided by the British council.
We have focused on developing strong local relationships in Algeria - over 86% of our total workforce in the country comes from cities close to our operations. Our relations with the local population are therefore very important. They are the cornerstone of all our development and growth.
