Personnel Structure
The majority of jobs at HHLA are in a segment of the labour market in which men are traditionally employed and women are proportionately less represented. However, the positive trend seen in the previous years continued in 2017 and the ratio of women employed by HHLA in Germany increased once again (including apprentices). At 15.5 %, the ratio of women employed by the company was 0.1 percentage points higher than in the previous year (15.4 %).
Gender distribution on the Executive Board and the two management levels below the Executive Board is governed by the German Act on the Equal Participation of Women and Men in Leadership Positions and by the targets agreed by the Supervisory Board and where applicable, the Executive Board. see Corporate Governance/Corporate Governance Report
