Personnel
Personnel
Expressed in FTEs, as at December 31,2000 the number of employees in-
creased by 8.1% to 278,705 compared to the previous year.
On December 31,2000,the Group employed 324,203 people (headcount),
which includes a total of 6,219 employees in training.That works out at an
average for the year of 276,348 full-time employees (excluding trainees).
The increase in the workforce (headcount) within the Group essentially came
as a result of the acquisitions in 2000 that brought around 14,000 employees
into the Group.
Stock options introduced as a modern form of remuneration for
executives
Our top executives have a key influence on the increase in the value of our
company.With stock options,we are therefore making them co-entrepre-
neurs.And their performance can clearly be measured by the performance
of AKTIE GELB.
We have launched a stock option plan that allows our executives to acquire
shares within a fixed period of time for a defined purchase price.This is
conditional on the shares having achieved two performance targets within
the three-year waiting period.The absolute performance target hinges on
the development of the share price over the course of the waiting period,and
the relative performance target depends on the performance of the shares
in relation to the Dow Jones Euro STOXX Total Return Index.
