EXMAR report 2025

3.1 Sustainability at EXMAR 67 Besides physical inputs, human resources are of utmost importance. Seafarers are the most valuable asset in maritime operations. Attracting, developing and retaining a skilled workforce is fundamental to operate in a safe and efficient manner. EXMAR’s effective recruitment strategies involve strong partnerships with maritime academies, training institutions and crewing agencies worldwide. To enhance job retention and satisfaction, we continuously invest in training, crew welfare, safe working conditions and fair contracts. 3.1.2.2.2 Heightened risk of global operations EXMAR operates within a dynamic global business environment, intricately connected to the diverse environmental and social realities of its worldwide operations. The fleet operates in international waters, and the offices are strategically positioned in key regions around the globe, enabling EXMAR to address regional market demands effectively. However, operating on such a global scale inherently presents heightened risks, including exposure to varying regulatory frameworks, geopolitical uncertainties and environmental challenges unique to each area of operation. Therefore, we prioritize the identification and management of heightened risks of adverse impacts, considering variability in environmental regulations, social conditions and governance standards across regions. We evaluate partnerships and supply chains to ensure compliance with international standards, and we consider the dynamic nature of maritime operations. Our risk management framework ensures compliance with strict maritime regulations and maintains a proactive stance in mitigating potential adverse impacts, safeguarding our global operations and stakeholders.
