HP expected to reach 8,000 employees


Hewlett Packard has as its goal for 2009 to reach a payroll of 8,000 employees in the country.

The company now has nearly 7,000 workers, said Maria Luisa Gonzalez, human resources manager of HP.

Gonzalez reported that although HP is expected to hire 250 recruits per month until December, not all of them will be to create new spaces.

“That figure (250 per month) does include new hires, but also organic growth and replacement of people who are going” said the manager.

Gonzalez said that the company defines organic growth as an opportunity to give their own workers to change job or promotion within the company.

“Despite the economic crisis affecting the world, HP has maintained a moderately optimistic about the challenges. At no time was thought to lay off employees, we continue with a recruitment process here” she added.

HP provides Customer Service from its Global Financial Services Forum in Building I, Santa Ana, and in the zone Ultrapark in Heredia. The multinational company arrived in 2003 and began its work with 185 people.

“We are positive that this year will include new professional workers. In the financial area will take a major, “said Gonzalez.
