Our people

At December 31, 2016, our Group's total resources amounted to 2,850 units (2,866 if we also consider leased staff), decreased by 37 units compared to the end of 2015 (-1.3%).

29% female presence, concentrated in white-collar category characterized by front end jobs, is distributed as follows: 3.6% executives, 23.4% white-collar, 1.8% blue-collar. The overwhelming presence of men in blue-collar category is motivated by the specific rules on airport operations, which penalizes the female working population compared to male workers.

The overall Headcount Equivalent[1] for January-December 2016 compared with all 2015 is up 10 units from 2,812 to 2,822 (+0.4%). This increase is due to retaining personnel from Airport Handling to cover new workforce needs within the SEA Group, especially for airport security services.

There were 31 employee departures for SEA, divided into 61% white-collar workers, 7% blue-collar workers, and 32% executives and managers.
