We offer our employees a reward system and a comprehensive programme of benefits and welfare initiatives.
Corporate welfare is an important part of Eni's history and identity as an employer. We place people at the heart of our business strategy, positioning ourselves as a "caring company". We promote a continuous commitment to caring for its people to create a shared value chain.
Over the course of time, this approach has been translated into a system of corporate benefits and welfare that includes a set of services, initiatives and tools aimed at improving the well-being of employees and that is now regarded as an example in the industry, as evidenced by the "Health Friendly Company" certification obtained from the Onda Foundation, a Women's health and gender observatory.
Eni is on a path of profound transformation towards energy decarbonization: it is a strategic journey in which our people play an essential role.
Luca De Santis
Head of Human Resources and Organisation at Eni
We follow the principles of a “caring company”, i.e. a company that is close to its people. We create welfare initiatives in a number of areas, from health to social security, income support and family and leisure management.
Today, four generations live together at Eni, with different goals and lifestyles, each with their own history and needs. The offer of services and opportunities involves new hires and then develops throughout their careers.
For Eni, health is a priority and an essential right in all its aspects. As a caring company, we are committed to ensuring our people's mental, physical and social well-being and on these issues we have developed an operational model for the health of our people, their families and communities. Our health promotion activities seek to develop a mindset that encourages healthy lifestyle choices in an environment that values, provides and promotes options that can generate health. Our aim is to influence lifestyles by acting on knowledge, on attitudes towards the events of life and on behaviours.
By working with qualified institutions throughout Italy, we promote initiatives aimed at spreading a prevention-oriented mindset. All employees are offered the opportunity to participate in check-ups on a voluntary basis:
As part of our prevention activities, we promote a seasonal flu vaccination campaign which is offered to all our employees in Italy.
Support for health also includes listening to our people and providing them with information on specific problems. For example, we have set up an information point in cooperation with AIMaC (Italian Association of Cancer Patients) offering support, guidance and information to cancer patients.
We are also planning to offer a 24/7 psychological counselling service for all our people in Italy, and a dedicated channel for victims of gender-based violence and harassment (Help line) has been activated. Eni also offers a social assistance service.

Più Salute is a new service by which Eni offers its people and their family members free immediate, digital and home-based qualified medical assistance through a single access channel accessible via app or website.
Our goal is an all-round coverage of the health needs of our people and their families. With Più Salute it is possible to request an immediate telephone or video consultation with a general practitioner or, by appointment, with a specialist, to activate home healthcare services, or book a medical history interview to design a personalised health plan. In addition, a dedicated support centre will always be available to book consultations and much more.
reconcile professional and personal needs and saves commuting time, which is also beneficial in environmental terms.
Eni introduced it in 2017 and it was expanded in 2021 to foster an increasingly better work-life balance. In Italy, Eni employees can request to work from home if they work in offices and industrial sites. As a further corporate welfare initiative, Eni has also introduced remote work for parents, employees suffering from illnesses or with disabled family members as part of its "Remote Work, Welfare & Sustainability" scheme.
We offer flexible working hours on a weekly and seasonal basis to promote a better work-life balance for our employees.
We focus our investments in particular on promoting patterns of behaviour that improve people's daily well-being. This results in high-quality corporate catering services and in the opportunity for all employees and their families to access a platform through which they can buy discount memberships at a network of around 2,000 sports centres across Italy.
We offer the opportunity to attend theatre and music performances, visit museums and exhibitions at reduced prices.
Remuneration policies for Eni employees are established according to a globally integrated model and promote merit-based salary increases relating to skills and performance, using local salaries as a benchmark. Moreover, Eni has been monitoring the wage gap between women and men annually since 2011 as part of its policies and has found that salaries are substantially aligned between them. With regard to international mobility, a key factor in the development of our business and of our people, we offer remuneration that compensates for the inconveniences connected with moving abroad as well as support for accommodation, children's education, travel home and family reunification in line with international standards.
We offer our employees the possibility of converting a portion of their participation bonus into welfare-related goods and services, taking advantage of the opportunities afforded by the law in terms of tax and pension contributions.
The individual basket of flexible benefits can be selected freely depending on individual and family needs through a dedicated web platform, ENI FLEX, which also offers access to a wide range of discounts on products and services.
Our people can join Healthcare funds that provide supplementary healthcare in addition to the medical services provided by the National Health Service, with the possibility of extending them to their family members. Participation in the funds is voluntary and allows members to benefit from the contributions paid by the company. Supplementary healthcare usually also includes reproductive and maternal health services (e.g. gynaecological examinations, pre- and post-natal check-ups, PAP tests, mammography, etc.).
Our people can voluntarily join contract-based pension funds (Fondenergia, Fopdire) that provide supplementary benefits in addition to those offered by the public pension system. Members can benefit from the contributions the company pays into the fund on their behalf.
The company organises special training sessions for all new hires so that they can understand the value of supplementary pension schemes and to promote voluntary and informed access to them. It also plans to introduce an incentive for joining the pension funds in the form of payment by the company of ordinary employee contribution, limited to the first two years.
We provide our people with insurance coverage against the risk of death and permanent disability, for occupational and non-occupational accidents and occupational disease. Thanks to specific agreements, they can also take out policies on favourable terms with selected insurance companies.
Thanks to agreements with leading operators, our employees can apply for corporate credit cards on favourable terms. The cards can be used in Italy and abroad to pay for work-related and personal expenses.
Since January 2023, we have been providing support and benefits to newly hired young people to make it easier for them to find a home near their place of work by offering a house-hunting service and bearing the costs of real estate agency fees. In addition, we provide young new recruits who live far from the place of work with accommodation in service flats for the first 3 months after they are hired, so that they have enough time to look for a new home.
The initiative is valid until the end of 2023 and is intended for employees with Eni Plenitude utilities with the "Per Noi" offer.
We have activated partner services for the purchase of laptops, desktop computers, monitors, printers collected by Eni and refurbished to class A+, we have agreements with national telephone operators for home internet subscriptions, since October 2022 we have been providing mobile devices of a higher class, with the possibility of redeeming them at the end of the lease period, converting their use from business to personal. We have also introduced discounts on the purchase of audio and video devices such as headphones, speakers, and webcams.
We have introduced the role of Mobility Coordinator. Their responsibility is to create action plans to support commuting between home and work, encouraging the use of public transport and the corporate carpooling service to help reduce pollutant emissions. Our people have the opportunity to access these services for free or at favourable rates, including company shuttles, bike sharing, annual public transport tickets and car rentals with some of the main car rental companies.
Starting from the first two months of 2023, we will launch an experimental electric and plug-in hybrid vehicle charging service for employees at our headquarters in San Donato Milanese and Rome free of charge for 2023. The charging service is provided to encourage virtuous and sustainable behaviour and as a contribution to refuelling for home-to-work commuting.
Since 2015, we have guaranteed all our employees globally the minimum maternity standards prescribed by the International Labour Organisation (ILO). For all mothers working in countries where Eni operates and where local legal conditions fall short of ILO standards, we guarantee a minimum of 14 weeks of leave with remuneration equal to at least 2/3 of what they received in the pre-leave period. Furthermore, in September 2017 Eni adopted a global internal procedure to establish a minimum standard for paternity leave, offering 10 working days with full pay.
The Eni crèche and nursery school was founded in 2010 in San Donato Milanese, and since 2019 it has been available in Rome as well. This initiative is dedicated to supporting families and enhancing the well-being of our employees by providing crucial support to harmonise the needs of their personal and professional lives.
We organise summer holidays in seaside and mountain resorts for children and teenagers aged between 6 and 14. In addition to workshops, sporting activities, games and recreational activities, the stays also include workshops focusing on environmental issues such as recycling, energy saving and the principles of the circular economy to foster a culture of care for the environment.
Eni organizes summer camps for teenagers aged 15 to 16 years old. English is the main language spoken in the camps, where young boys and girls also practice sporting and cultural activities and spend time in nature. The activity plan also includes moments for engagement and dialogue on environmental and sustainability themes connected with the goals of Agenda 2030 and offers educational pathways to foster awareness of issues related to interculturality and respect for human rights.
The service is based on an integrated nationwide network of qualified operators and provides information, guidance and support to families with problems related to non-self-sufficiency and disability through a contact centre and a web platform. 'Fragibilità' also offers a training and informative programme for caregivers divided into short video clips that can be viewed on MyEni prepared by experts and professionals in the sector to enhance skills on social security and economic issues.
We offer holidays in seaside and mountain resorts, complete with a rich programme of social and entertainment activities, as well as local excursions. A 24-hour health service is guaranteed during the stay.

Services and benefits have been extended with the aim of improving the quality of work and life throughout the entire work cycle. The main areas of Eni’s corporate welfare programme are the psychological and physical well-being of individuals, aspects relating to financial support and social security, the opportunities connected with the energy transition, and the needs of family care.
In this context, ten listening workshops were organised involving a sample of people, half under 35 and half over 35, from all over the country. This made it possible to understand the needs expressed by different groups of employees, such as new parents, workers close to retirement and young new recruits.
Luca De Santis, Head of Human Resources and Organisation at Eni says that “the success of a welfare programme is directly proportional to the company's ability to listen to colleagues and to do so in a structured way” with the understanding that the diversity of all the people who work at Eni is our most important asset.
