Aramex launches Green Champions program

• Program involves training staff in environmentally friendly practices; launched in Jordan, to be rolled out across global network
• Aimed at instilling commitment to environment and community among global workforce

In line with its long-term commitment to sustainability, Aramex, the global logistics and transportation solutions provider, today announced the launch of its Green Champions program, which provides training to staff in environmentally friendly practices at the workplace and at home. The program, which was launched recently at the company Global Support Office in Amman, Jordan, will be rolled out across Aramex worldwide network.

The training program has been developed in partnership with Terra Vertis, an Amman-based consulting firm specialising in corporate sustainability and responsibility solutions and strategies. Aramex has developed a special module for the program, with on-ground support from Terra Vertis.

The first group of employees, including 22 members of staff from the Global Support Office and Amman station, has already been trained in the module. These employees will, in turn, provide training to other Aramex staff based on their learning from this unique program.

As the name of this program suggests, our aim is to create Green Champions across our global workforce,said Raji Hattar, Aramex Chief Sustainability Officer. These Green Champions will themselves become ambassadors for Aramex diverse sustainability initiatives, training other employees in environmentally friendly practices and contributing to greener and more sustainable communities in all the markets we serve.
