The base for the indicator started in 2016, considering managers who already held or took on a top management position that year (for positions taken before 2016, even professionals coming from other locations are considered locals). As of 2016, the base was set and updated according to manager movement. The local community reference is statewide.

In 2022, 100% of directors and managers in São Paulo and 67% in Santa Catarina were hired in the same states as the operating units, which means that one out of every three hires made in Santa Catarina came from outside the state.

45% of new hires took place in the group of professionals up to 30 years old, 43% of whom were female. The South region concentrated the highest percentage of new hires, as the Company's largest operations are concentrated in this region.

On the other hand, the turnover rate was higher in the group of professionals aged up to 30 years and in the female gender, 27% and 25% respectively. The Southeast region concentrated the highest rate in the period, 20%, which can be explained by the competition for talent by other companies in the same region.
