How We Work
We are part of one international team, and each employee’s contribution to our business is an essential asset for our success. We are committed to buttressing a safe and encouraging workplace underpinned by mutual trust and respect towards and among employees. We ensure that the health and safety of our employees is treated with the highest priority via our solid and structured management system, and HSE data monitoring and reporting.
Our Code of Conduct requires all employees to act with honesty and integrity, fostering a business environment that protects the rights and interests of all stakeholders. Moreover, we strive to create positive social development impacts for the communities where we operate and serve as providers of local employment opportunities.
Diversity and Inclusion
Our culture is based on the juxtaposition between our local characteristics and our international nature, for which we aim to cultivate a strong community-based identity, promoting our talents and making sure that their differences become part of our strength and strategic assets.
Fertiglobe, a company comprising more than 40 nationalities, is unwavering in its commitment to fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace. We believe in the strength that comes from bringing together individuals with different backgrounds, beliefs, cultures, and ages.
To ensure equity across all aspects of employment, our group-wide Diversity and Inclusion program covers employees’, covering recruitment, retention, and promotion. We employ internal benchmarks, de-biasing training, sponsorship initiatives, mentorship programs, and employee networks. In fields traditionally dominated by men, we are proactively enhancing gender diversity across both technical and non-technical positions.
Health and Safety
We ensure that the health and safety of our employees and contractors are treated with the highest priority, as they are essential to the sustained growth of our business and are in the best interests of our stakeholders.
At Fertiglobe, we manage Health and Safety through a solid and structured management system, setting out the organisation’s general approach and commitment to achieving HSE excellence performance in business and operations.
Our system clearly defines the roles and responsibilities of each employee, and covers different aspects ranging from occupational health, to, adverse occupational exposures, and environmental events. Moreover, Senior Management leaderships visits to each site increase employees’ engagement into HSE topics and processes and constantly enhance our HSE performance.
We are proud of our track record on safety, resulting in metrics well below the fertilizer industry average.
Community Engagement
At Fertiglobe, our commitment extends beyond traditional corporate responsibility. We are dedicated to seamlessly integrating into the communities we serve, with an emphasis on education. We are deeply committed to education as a pillar of social progress and we are particularly focused on enhancing educational opportunities in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplines
At the core of our success are our employees, who actively engage in local communities through fundraisers and volunteer events. We have cultivated local social development programs tailored to the specific needs of each of our communities to maximize the impact of our social outreach.
