About People
At Aras Kargo, we prioritize “diversity - inclusion” and “gender balance” while managing our products, services, and processes together with our field teams and administrative teams working for our customers, day and night. We carry out studies on the United Nations Women's Empowerment Principles and our international commitments as a signatory of the Global Compact under the umbrella of “Sustainability” in our Human Resources policies. We do not tolerate discrimination and prejudices specific to gender or any other differences, and we provide employee awareness in this direction with regular trainings.
At Aras Kargo, we carry out our Human Resources processes with open communication and transparency all along the journey from candidate experience to employee experience. We announce vacant positions via internal announcements and offer “Career Opportunities” to our teammates at all levels. We carry out our recruitment processes with objective competency-based evaluation tools and adhere to the principle of merit. We believe in the importance of feedback and continuous development, and we care about and support the “coaching culture” approach within the organization.
In order to hear the voice of all of our employees and ensure their participation in management, we touch all of our team members with the“Employee Engagement Survey”that we implement together with a professional research company every year and with the instant “pulse surveys”. Our employee engagement score is above the industry average of 80%. We also carry out our “Suggestion System” studies, in which we receive the ideas of our teammates, within the scope of our continuous improvement activities.
