We stand for diversity, equal opportunities, inclusion and belonging! In an increasingly globalized and diverse world, it is crucial that companies recognize and promote the benefits of diversity.
Diversity refers to the variety of people in terms of gender, age, ethnicity, sexual orientation, physical ability, education and many other characteristics. At CGN HUB, we want to bring together all people with their different skills, experiences and perspectives.
Why diversity is so important to our location
Innovation and creativity: At the CGN HUB, we promote creative solutions and innovative ideas by valuing different perspectives and experiences in our teams. The exchange of different points of view creates new ways of thinking and potential for growth and success.
Customer proximity: As a company with a diverse workforce, we are better able to respond to the needs of our customers. We understand different cultures, lifestyles and preferences and can therefore offer more targeted products and services that meet the individual requirements of our customers.
Employee retention and motivation: Our inclusive working environment creates a sense of belonging and respect. Our goal is for our employees to feel valued and motivated to contribute their full potential.
Inclusive labor market: As a company, we want to attract talented employees and professionals who want to work in an open and inclusive environment. By promoting diversity, we can utilize different perspectives to better adapt to changing markets and customer needs and thus remain competitive.
Corporate culture: Diversity is very important to us and is firmly anchored in our corporate culture. We create an environment that is characterized by openness, tolerance and respect. A diverse workforce enables us to listen to different ideas and ensure equal opportunities for all.
Cologne has had an independent department for diversity and inclusion for several years. This department is primarily concerned with creating recognition and appreciation of diversity. In addition, it draws attention to special human situations, but also consciously addresses forms of discrimination and does a lot of awareness-raising work in a wide variety of areas.
We firmly believe that diversity makes us stronger. That is why we create an inclusive working environment in which every person has the opportunity to fully exploit their individual potential. We work together to develop innovative solutions that offer our customers added value.
These are our measures
Onboarding Diversity Day: Our new employees are given an introduction to our corporate culture. In the thematic blocks of cultural diversity, generations, gender diversity & LGBTQIA+ and inclusion, knowledge and facts are shared, but there is also room for questions and an exchange of experiences. This allows us to pass on the spirit at the CGN HUB directly and sensitize employees right from the start of their DHL journey.
Inclusion of people with disabilities: We are convinced that every employee has individual abilities and wants to be an active, productive member of our company. At CGN HUB, our existing inclusion department and its collaboration with various service providers and an inclusion service provider give us the opportunity to provide individual and professional advice, guidance, coaching and support. From onboarding to feedback meetings, applying for aids or adapting work equipment - we are there to create the best possible conditions in the company for our employees with a wide range of coaching and support services tailored to their needs - so that everyone can contribute their skills to our company!
Participation at Cologne Pride: We want to set a strong example for our employees from the LGBTQIA+ community and have been taking part in the Cologne Christopher Street Day for a few years now. We stand up for human rights, show ourselves openly as Allys and want to celebrate diversity with our colleagues.
Comprehensive range of support: As an employer, we want to be there for our employees in all situations. Whether it's a family care situation, problems with childcare or life crises - we are committed to the well-being of our employees through our locally networked advisory and support services.
Annual Employee Opinion Survey (EOS): With the help of our annual employee opinion survey, we are not only able to find out about the management behavior of line managers or the perception of the company situation, but also how our employees perceive our values. We ask exactly how our employees feel they belong and how they rate our development in terms of diversity and inclusion. The results are used to highlight our potential for improvement, which we tackle with specific measures.
The CGN HUB is the DHL hub at Cologne Bonn Airport. It is operated by DHL Airways GmbH, a subsidiary of the DHL Group, and is part of the DHL Express division.

The people around the Rhine area are known for their sociable mentality and open-mindedness. “En joode Zick” (a good time german slang) is also very important to us beyond our day-to-day work and we like to spend it together at great events.
