Several courses are offered, and the Academy\u2019s purpose is to strengthen the staff both professionally and personally. The values \u200b\u200bof Blue Lagoon are \u201cWe Care,\u201d \u201cWe Respect\u201d, \u201dWe Bring Joy,\u201d and \u201cWe Create Memories.\u201d Our values are the cornerstone of the Blue Lagoon\u2019s culture and reflect all the education that the Academy offers.<\/p>\n

Blue Lagoon Academy seeks a strong source of knowledge from its employees in both creating and teaching courses, and also seeks knowledge outside Blue Lagoon\u2014when necessary\u2014 and then adapts that knowledge to the company\u2019s needs. At the Blue Lagoon Academy, emphasis is given on training staff from the very first day. Among the topics covered are on-boarding, Blue Lagoon products and services, health and safety, cultural awareness, creating unforgettable memories with guests, sales training, and providing a professional and excellent service. Leaders and managers are also supported through coaching and counseling.<\/p>\n

Blue Lagoon places great emphasis on career development within the company and is constantly looking for new ways to achieve even better results in strengthening the knowledge and skills of its employees, thus building an even stronger team. In 2019, 60 employees were promoted within Blue Lagoon, both developing across the company and in career development where employees were given increased responsibility in their work.<\/p>\n

In 2019, a new electronic education system, Eloomi, was introduced into the Blue Lagoon Academy. The system has paved the way for further education and training of staff by offering courses that are both mandatory and optional for staff. With this system, it is possible to reach new staff earlier in terms of on-boarding, providing an introduction to the company and sharing other important information. An electronic education system also allows us to strengthen current education and further increase the supply and access to education.<\/p>\n

It is very important for the company that there is consistency across divisions and departments when it comes to wages and wage decisions, and that women and men receive the same salary, benefits, and rights for the same or equivalent jobs.<\/p>\n

Blue Lagoon underwent a maintenance audit of the equal pay system at the end of 2019 and passed it with distinction. The gender pay gap was measured below the margin of error or 1.47%. In 2019, the calculations were based on fewer covariates than in 2018 to provide a more reliable comparison of the gender pay gap within the company.[\/vc_column_text][mk_table]\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
