Introduction

Led by Rodolphe Saadé, the CMA CGM Group, a global player in sea, land, air and logistics solutions, serves more than 420 ports around the world on five continents. Backed by a fleet of 583 vessels, the Group transported 22 million TEU containers (twenty-foot equivalent units) in 2021. With its subsidiary CEVA Logistics, and CMA CGM AIR CARGO, the CMA CGM Group is continually innovating to offer a complete and efficient range of new shipping, land, air and logistics solutions.

CMA CGM’s shipping business has been operating in Singapore since 1992. People are at the heart of the Group’s corporate strategy; we are committed to ensuring the health, safety and development of employees on land and at sea.

Employee Well-Being

Employees are CMA CGM Group’s greatest asset; they are highly valued and appreciated.

During the pandemic, our employees worked safely from home, in line with the local regulations depending on the nature of the work. This year, the Group implemented flexible working arrangements for our employees to work up to two days a week away from the office. To enable a smooth transition to a hybrid work model, they have been provided with a telework guide and reliable digital tools.

All employees have access to health and insurance coverage through the Group’s insurance.

Employee Engagement

The Group strongly believes in open communication.

We value employees’ well-being and provide the necessary support, especially during the pandemic period. We empower them with ways to take charge of their well-being through a range of virtual sessions such as wellness talks, experiential learning workshops and fitness classes.

We invite feedback that we review and address. The company proactively announces about initiatives and changes. We also reinforce them through our weekly staff newsletters and internal communications platforms; and employee townhalls that encourage exchanges.

Employer Branding

The Group believes diversity and inclusion are key to building successful teams, focusing on gender equality, intergenerational diversity and cultural diversity.

We raise employee awareness and promote diversity and inclusion through mandatory training courses. A digital “C-Box Diversity” has been made accessible to employees to identify potential situations of discrimination and to plan concrete actions within the teams.

We see the need to strengthen our local talent pipeline to support the Group’s dynamism and growth. The Group collaborated with the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore (MPA) to attract talent through maritime scholarships such as the Tripartite Maritime Scholarship, and new industry-wide initiatives to attract and empower the Singapore-based maritime workforce, tapping on the MPA Maritime Cluster Fund.

Workplace policies and practices

The Group provides equal opportunities for success to all and to fostering a fair and inclusive working environment through

• Awareness training that is instrumental for the Group’s recruiters and managers in selecting candidates objectively and promoting diversity within the teams.
• Diversity in our human resources programmes and tools.
• Internal and external communications campaign to promote women’s careers within the Group and its diverse portfolio of businesses.

Committed to the professional development of our employees, we promote learning and opportunities through the in-house corporate training center, CMA CGM Academy, to develop the skills and expertise related to the evolution of the business. We also harmonise processes and tools globally to offer job opportunities and job bridges for every employee through C-Mobility, an artificial intelligence tool that enables employees to receive job opportunities in some regions the Group operates.
