Employees
Creating favourite meeting places for our employees, the basis of our success.
Corio wants to attract and retain talent. Our employees receive on the job and external training in order to help them achieve their full potential. We want to develop leadership in our company as a whole and within management in order to enhance the Corio name in the real estate market and our reputation as an employer.
In 2009 Corio hired a Human Resources director at holding level who will develop a company-wide international HR policy covering all employees, which will be implemented in 2010. This policy will set a high standard to serve as a common basis for the HR policies that will be adapted further to local needs and practices. The objective is to engender an overall development scheme within Corio in which employees can thrive.
In 2009 we took several measures aimed at raising awareness on CSR issues within the company, as we believe we should ensure that these issues are taken just as seriously within the company as outside. We cannot set demands for our stakeholders if we do not live by them ourselves. We have therefore included environmental and labour issues, such as a conscious use of natural resources like energy, and clear communications on what Corio stands for and its ethics, in the Corio Code of Conduct. Another measure is the creation of an online CSR resource (sharepoint) aimed at all employees concerned with the topic. It comprises a database with several years of data covering, among other aspects, the environmental impact of our shopping centres. It also serves as a communication tool and resource with which to exchange knowledge and experience within the company.
