Grobest is a diverse company with more than 3,000 employees from more than 15 different nationalities. We strive to provide equal opportunities for employment, promotion, pay, and professional development, while ensuring a workplace environment free from harassment or discrimination.

Training & Education

Building workforce capability and developing our people so they can achieve their potential is critical to fulfilling our strategic ambitions. We invest in attracting talent and incubating capabilities in core business lines, strengthening our approach to capability building and designing new programs to reskill employees to stay relevant in a dynamic industry. Training and education is key to ensuring our employees are aware and comply with our diverse policies and codes of conduct.

We recognise the importance of providing regular performance and career development reviews for our employees. These reviews serve as valuable opportunities to assess individual progress, provide constructive feedback, and identify areas for growth and improvement. By fostering a culture of continuous learning and development, we aim to empower our employees, enhance their skills, and support their professional advancement, ultimately contributing to their job satisfaction, and thereby overall success of our organization.

Engaging Our People

Ensuring that we offer a collaborative and inclusive workplace that prioritises employee engagement is a top priority at Grobest. Through continuous communication, training opportunities, and employee recognition programs, we aim to create a supportive and empowering work culture that encourages innovation, collaboration, and personal growth.

Recruitment

Asia is a dynamic region that provides ample career opportunities. Consequently, there is a constant demand and competition for talent. One way that we are responding as a business to this challenge, is by actively monitoring our turnover levels against the industry. This allows us to gain a deeper understanding of the levels of employee engagement and to respond with targeted programmes and opportunities for our people.

Diversity & Equal Opportunity

We strive to create an environment where everyone feels included and comfortable expressing their opinions. We value and celebrate differences, and actively seek out diverse perspectives in all our markets. This approach leads to greater innovation, better decision-making, increased adaptability, and improved problem-solving. As an example, 67% of our technical staff in Thailand are female, despite field work being a traditionally male-dominated area.

To ensure that our employees understand and embrace our commitment to inclusion and non-discrimination, we require all new hires to complete training on our Code of Conduct, which includes this important topic. Additionally, we have policies and e-learning modules that outline expected workplace conduct and professionalism, as well as channels for escalation in case of harassment.

We have a zero-tolerance policy for discrimination or harassment in any form, as captured in our Anti-Harassment & Anti-Discrimination Policy. We firmly believe that everyone deserves to be treated with respect and dignity, regardless of their race, colour, religion, gender, nationality, age, disability, military service, marital status, or sexual orientation.

We recognise the importance of ensuring fair and equitable pay practices for all employees. In line with this commitment, we are actively working to improve our data collection methods and verify the accuracy of any pay gaps between men and women. We strive to provide more comprehensive insights into this matter in the upcoming year, as we continue to enhance transparency and promote equality in the workplace.

Welfare & remuneration

We believe in providing an equitable workplace. Our welfare & remuneration system is designed to attract, motivate, retain and cultivate talent. According to the job content, performance and contribution of each employee, we conduct differentiated compensation and benefits analyses, including regular salary market surveys to ensure the company’s compensation structure remains relevant and competitive.

The health and well-being of our people and their families is a priority for the company. Our company-wide benefits and workforce well-being programmes include reviews of our health and medical benefits, work on driving safety awareness by employee safety engagement activities, and different kinds on-the-job training and learning sessions.

Beyond compliance with regulatory requirements, we continue to review our benefits against market practices and work on key areas for improvement identified through our employee engagement survey.

We hope that the work we do continues to foster the One Grobest, One Team culture that prioritises total well-being among our employees, instilling a sense of pride and belonging in each of them to contribute to the long-term sustainable success of the company.
