Opportunities for technology experts
Extending our technology leadership is a key Company goal. To achieve this ambitious
objective, we must maintain and strengthen our power of innovation over the long term.
That’s why we are systematically enhancing the status of our technology experts by offering
them attractive career options and giving the best of them a major role in making business
decisions. These experts now have advancement opportunities comparable to those of our
top junior managers. We’re convinced that this approach will enable all our employees to
fully develop their potential for innovation while helping us attract and retain the best
people on the labor market.
Worldwide vocational training programs
With more than 7,000 apprentices, Siemens is one of Germany’s largest private providers of
vocational training. In the fall of 2005, as part of our Training Pact for the Future, we creat-
ed an additional 400 apprenticeships in Germany. We offer a comprehensive range of train-
ing programs, preparing young people for new types of jobs in business administration, IT,
metalworking and electrical engineering. In addition, we sponsor special programs for
high school graduates and work-study projects for university students. Some 3,000 young
people from other companies are also enrolled in our training programs.
Siemens is exporting its dual training system, which combines theory and practice, to
many of its Regional Companies around the world. Outside Germany, about 4,000 young
people are currently enrolled in Siemens apprenticeship programs, which have been adapt-
ed to suit country-specific conditions. These programs enable us to maintain an outstand-
ing workforce, which in turn will contribute to the high quality of our products and services.
Employees worldwide
At the end of fiscal 2005, Siemens had 460,800 employees worldwide.
Of this total, more than 60 percent worked outside Germany.
We are active in roughly 190 countries. In fiscal 2005, we again boosted our
global presence, particularly in the key growth markets of Asia.
