===Employee Distribution===
* Vestas recruit employees under the '''“People before megawatt”''' principle, because the costs of well-educated excess capacity are lower than the costs of remedying faults due to a rushed staff inflow caused by strong MW growth.
* The 23,252 employees have an average seniority of 3 years and 11 months.
* Key priority areas identified are training and, in particular, retention of new and existing employees as around 22% of the employees are having less than one year's seniority.
* Due to enhanced efficiency, improved turbine performance and economies of scale, going forward, Vestas expects its headcount to rise at a lower rate than its business volume.
* A prerequisite for sustaining progress is for Vestas to become a more international business with a much higher number of non-Danish employees in management positions. Furthermore, Vestas aims to have more women executives.
* In addition, Vestas also aims to have many nationalities at all locations in order to create a truly global business, which also has extensive local insight and understanding.
