Safe, healthy, diverse and gender equal workforce

Our target

The maritime industry has traditionally been male-dominated, and has drawn its employees from the same communities, year after year. At Stena Line, this is changing. Our moral responsibility to provide an environment where everyone is welcome, coupled with equality legislation and our belief in the economic value of diversity are driving us to recruit and retain the best talents from every background.

Stena Line’s vision is to be a trusted link between people, places, and society. Our employees are our most important assets, and we want them to take pride in their workplace and excel here. Therefore, the Employee Net Promoter Score (eNPS) is a good marker for our progress.

The Employee Net Promoter Score (eNPS) measures how likely employees are to recommend Stena Line as a great workplace, reflecting their happiness and loyalty. By aiming for an eNPS of 32, we demonstrate our commitment to building an inclusive, engaging, and respectful environment where employees feel valued, satisfied, and motivated—proving our efforts in diversity and inclusion are driving meaningful progress.

Supporting Mental Health and Well-Being

• We prioritize mental health with seminars, well-being tools and benefits, activities like yoga and running. By promoting stress management, teamwork, and psychological safety, we create a supportive environment where employees feel valued and thrive both personally and professionally.

Inclusive Practices
