Talara locals will receive homologation in electromechanical painting thanks to PETROPERÚ

Forty electromechanical workers from the province of Talara began, thanks to PETROPERÚ, the technical training program to obtain certification of work experience and homologation -in electromechanical painting- under the Steel Structures Painting Council (SSPC) standard and the National Association of Corrion Engineers (NACE) standard.

For six months, the participants - who already have vast experience - will receive, free of charge, theoretical-practical training by specialists from the company Sistemas Técnicos Auxiliares S.A.C.-STIN, in order to receive their training and homologation certificate. and maximize their employment opportunities in the companies that participate in the construction of the New Talara Refinery, or in any other project at the national level.

Óscar Vera Gargurevich, Talara Refinery corporate manager, highlighted PETROPERÚ's commitment to the execution of training programs and certification of work experience, in the specialties with the greatest demand; which he -he said- in the last 10 years have benefited more than 1,900 Talara locals, of which 95% have reintegrated into the workforce or have started a career line in the companies for which they work.

It is important to emphasize that the total number of beneficiaries went through a registration and pre-selection process that began in April and that included a qualified theoretical-practical reinforcement period; a psychological interview and practical evaluations to determine, in order of merit, the benefited workers from Talara.

This activity is carried out in line with the Local Labor Contracting Program of the Community Relations Plan of the Environmental Impact Study of the Talara Refinery Modernization Project.
