This aspect allows the organization to monitor the comprehensive well-being of its employees, focused on health and retention, which leads to creating an environment of belonging where each employee feels proud of their work, committed, and motivated to achieve their objectives and those of the company.
Innovation
For GK, the issue of education and development is very important, which is why it ensures that each of its employees is constantly updated and trained.

The monitoring of their human capital is carried out continuously to ensure that they can opt for different promotions, and that they develop their career within the organization.
The aforementioned approaches are key to the success of GK’s business, since they foster the motivation and happiness of employees, which is transmitted to the development of the company and its clients.
