This morning, the Port Authority of the Balearic Islands (APB) presented its human resource management experience, and the energy-saving policies it has implemented in its new offices at the Port of Palma, to a delegation from the Institutional Forum for Quality in the Public Sector in the Balearic Islands. 

 

The workshop was organised by the APB, which has been a member of the Forum since 2013, and centred on port authority managers providing the Institutional Forum for Quality with an insight into their experience of competence-based management as part of the APB’s human resource policy, as well as a presentation on energy efficiency at the port authority offices, including a visit to its new headquarters. The meeting finished with a guided tour around the Port of Palma in which the most relevant aspects of port infrastructure were explained.
