The objectives of the Homeland Plan Act include ensuring quality of life as well as the selection and timely employment of human talent committed to the country. The workforce, from oil and non-oil subsidiaries, plays a leading role in achieving the goals set by PDVSA, with high levels of efficiency and effectiveness. Currently, the Industry has workers and technicians (contractual payroll), as well as professionals (non-contractual payroll) with the knowledge to properly handle business plans, development policies and projects.
Since 2011, the workforce of non-oil subsidiaries has reflected a policy of expansion of the Corporation into areas such as food (PDVSA Agrícola), industrial (PDVSA Industrial and PDVSA Naval), public services (PDVSA Gas Comunal and PDVSA TV) and infrastructure (PDVSA Desarrollos Urbanos and PDVSA Ingeniería y Construcción), offshore gas projects and new developments in the Orinoco Oil Belt, the construction of the Batalla de Santa Inés (Barinas state) and Petrobicentenario (Anzoátegui state) Refineries and maintenance of the National Refinery System.
