At Costa Verde, we consider people as one of our main resources, if not the most important one. We believe that, by training and qualifying them, we’re making a high-return investment, thus contributing to sustainable development.
Therefore, since 2007, Costa Verde is also an accredited organization by DGERT – General Directorate for Employment and Labour Relations.
