The demands in the logistics industry are intense, especially when it comes to hiring skilled workers. The manage¬ment is making all possible efforts to develop hiring practices that produce results, which in turn, will enable theCompany to remain competitive in today's growing market.
Before the pandemic hit, employers in the logistics industry were struggling to find skilled workers. Once COVID-19hit, not only did the demand for shipping goods significantly increase but the talent pool of skilled, as well as non¬skilled, workers shrunk. As the economy begins to stabilize, employers are still finding it difficult to attract skilled
workers.
A continuous effort is being made by the management to make the Company a great place of work by providing aplatform for employees where they feel empowered and engaged. At Amiable, we always strive for continuousimprovement and believe in our strong foundation which is reflected in our values and systems.
