It is therefore important for companies to promote inclusion and equal opportunities to retain and attract talents," said Mateen Thiruselvaam, Senior Vice President, Human Resources, DHL Express Asia Pacific.

An engaged and inclusive workforce

To ensure employees remain motivated, DHL Express provides equal learning and development opportunities to keep employee satisfaction high.

Employees united by a single platform and purpose

As a global organization with 120,000 employees across more than 220 countries and territories, DHL Express is focused on enhancing employee engagement. Its social intranet, Smart Connect, is a mobile and online platform where employees gain access to various services and content, such as company and HR resources, news, campaigns and engagement programs.
