ESG
ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL & GOVERNANCE
We have always been encouraged by the growing awareness that business has to step up and recognize that with influence comes responsibility. As engaged entrepreneurs, the best contribution we believe we can make to society as a whole, is to create employment and economic activity in the regions where we are active.
The many initiatives we took over the last years to create an attractive working environment for the employees of Weerts Supply Chain, resulted in winning the 2020 Logistics Employer of the Year Award. This prestigious award issued by Transport Media rewards a project for the management of Human Resources within a transport and/or logistics company or the logistics department of an industrial or commercial company. Key elements that contributed to winning the award included the integration of the Human Resources function in a comprehensive change management context, in a challenging social environment
