DHL Global Forwarding, the leading international provider of air, sea and road freight services, and a division of Deutsche Post DHL Group ('DPDHL Group' or 'the Group'), has been recognised by the Top Employers Institute as a Top Employer in Asia Pacific, as well as in Indonesia, India, Malaysia, the Philippines and Thailand, for 2020, in its first attempt applying for this prestigious certification in the region.
The certification attests to DHL Global Forwarding's achievement in implementing best HR practices in the region by fostering a positive work environment and encouraging its employees' personal and professional development.
'While systems and processes are integral to logistics, we believe that DHL is essentially a 'people business'. Every success that we have comes from and belongs to all our employees. That is why we continue to invest in creating the best workplace for our employees to thrive in and to deliver best-in-class logistics services to our customers,' said Kelvin Leung, CEO, DHL Global Forwarding Asia Pacific.
The recognition for DHL Global Forwarding Asia Pacific is the latest for the group, which has frequently been recognised as a top employer in the market it operates in.
With approximately 550,000 employees worldwide, the group places a significant emphasis on people and its aim to be an employer of choice. The group has in place robust human resources programs that include extensive employee engagement activities and feedback mechanisms, like its annual Employee Opinion Survey, which are aligned with the organization's culture of 'Respect and Result'.
A key focus is also on helping employees realise their full potential through internal and external training, such as DHL's in-house Certified International Forwarder programme, on-the-job training and mentoring sessions, based on the needs of the individual employee.
