Denbury provides employees with many ways to expand their skills and develop their careers. We believe this is critical to each employee’s individual success as well as our success as a company. Through training and development initiatives, our employees are offered:

• In-person courses to increase both technical knowledge and soft skills such as communication, management and leadership;
• Tools to support them in planning for, and developing, their own unique career paths;
• Computer and web-based training in support of individual employee development and company policies and initiatives; and
• Monetary support for continuing education and field-specific workshops and classes.

Performance Reviews

GRI:
G4-LA11 Employee
Training &
Development We believe that one of the most important aspects to a successful development and training program is a robust performance review process. All of our employees participate in our annual performance review process, which is a year-long cycle that promotes open dialog between employees and their managers and helps motivate employees to deliver superior performance. It starts at the beginning of each year with the setting of individual and team goals, continues throughout the year through periodic discussions between manager and employee and ends with a review of the employee’s performance. The performance review process is continually evolving to ensure it is providing useful and constructive feedback to our employees to increase their future potential.

Every job position in Denbury, from an operator in the field to a Senior Vice President in our corporate office, has a safety training curriculum assignment. Although the specific curriculum varies based on job position, each employee is required to participate in safety training delivered by a combination of computer-based sessions, safety meetings and classroom training. Denbury’s training goals include a minimum completion requirement of these training elements for each employee. Continuous reinforcement of safety standards and policies ensures that safety is always a part of Denbury’s culture. Each year the training curriculum is evaluated for effectiveness, compliance with changing regulations and overall company strategic focus. The curriculum for each job position is adjusted based on this evaluation at the start of each calendar year.
