Employee engagement

As a family business we take care of our employees and, as such, our core values are fully aligned with our social strategy. From an ESG perspective, Wagenborg’s material social impacts, both positive and negative, as well as risks and opportunities, are managed in our approach to safety, health and well-being, personal development, employee engagement, diversity & inclusion, employee relations and human rights.

Retaining talent is one of the strategic HR priorities. The specific nature of our business requires specific knowledge and craftsmanship. We invest in our people to keep them healthy, qualified and engaged during their career. In addition to individual development programs, we offer various in-company training courses, in order to strengthen our organisational capabilities.

By means of an employee satisfaction survey we contiuously identify areas to improve employee satisfaction and make Wagenborg even more attractive to current and future colleagues. The survey defines an ‘Employee Net Promotor Score’ (eNPS), which is an expression of how likely it is that our colleagues recommend Royal Wagenborg as an employer. We are pleased to see that an overall score of 31. This score is also substantially higher than the eNPS benchmark of 12.
