Putting our Employees First

Crowley’s ongoing journey to greater sustainability made important strides in 2022. Here are a few highlights we are especially proud of.

LATOYA WALKER
PROJECT MANAGER, SUPPLY CHAIN (GOVERNMENT SOLUTIONS BUSINESS UNIT)

Working with the Big Brothers Big Sisters program has been very uplifting and life impacting. When I first signed up, I was looking to make a difference in someone’s life, but the opposite happened and I am better for it. Working with our BRIDGE BRG has been a phenomenal experience. I have been able to work with colleagues who I ordinarily would not and together we have made an impact, breaking barriers not only in the company, but within the community.

CÉSAR VÁSQUEZ
BUSINESS TECHNOLOGY ANALYST, CO-CHAIR OF CROWLEY’S STRONGER TOGETHER: LGBTQ+ ALLIANCE BRG

DE&I at Crowley is essential to fostering belonging, advancing our commitment to elevate people and planet by empowering everyone to thrive. Everyone deserves to be valued, seen, heard and safe being who they authentically are. Advancing workplace equality and inclusion is a global matter that requires our collective commitment and action.

RON HUNNICUTT
TERMINAL FOREMAN

I have worked with Crowley for over 18 years and am very proud to serve the residents of our community and the surrounding villages with all their fuel needs. Kotzebue is my hometown. I was born and raised here in our native culture which focuses on living off the land, hunting, fishing and a subsistence way of life, as well as helping family members and other Elders in the community. I am very thankful for the local team we have here — we all work well together and do what we can to help the community.

MARCIA BROWN (SHE/HER)
DIRECTOR, FREIGHT SERVICES

Transportation and Logistics is a career that is exhilarating, fast-paced, demanding and regulations driven, with an emphasis on customer-centricity. Therefore, I encourage those looking to join the industry to keep your mind agile and let your journey’s light be ignited by your commitment to carrying the world forward. Be great, excel and never sit on the sideline and maintain the status quo. This motto has sustained me with a rewarding 35 years with Crowley.

Employee Diversity

Below is a breakdown of management employee diversity, which does not reflect union members or contractors. Our diversity reporting is a work in progress and we hope to be able to report on the diversity of our entire workforce in the future. We continue to implement initiatives to increase the diversity of our staff and reflect the places where we live and work.

2025 Goals

After assessing our global workforce, we set strategic representation goals for 2025 to measure progress from our 2022 baseline:

Career Development and Leadership

Our people are passionate, committed and proud to work at Crowley. They are what make Crowley’s culture unique in our industry, and beyond.

Recruiting and retaining qualified diverse talent is an essential part of our strategy. Our people-first culture recognizes our employees’ value and the importance of meeting their needs.

In 2022, our employees completed over 92,000 hours of training. New this past year, we provided employees with the opportunity to use digital platforms to build skills outside of their core responsibilities.

Changes to our leadership team in the last few years have brought fresh ideas and an even better connection between senior leaders and the broader organization. To encourage leadership support and transparency, we developed a framework to assess leadership competencies in 2022 that will be implemented in 2023.

Employee Health and Safety

Our employees’ health and safety is essential to our success. Through enhanced benefits, new policies and targeted communication, we support our employees across all facets of wellbeing.

Safety is embedded across our core values as we cultivate a speak-up culture through established programs like proactive injury prevention, management site safety visits and safety leadership training. Everyone on a Crowley site, including all employees and contractors, has stop-work authority and an obligation to stop unsafe practices.

This year, we enhanced our benefit offerings to include LGBTQ+ needs and services, expanded coverage and travel benefits for employees seeking care outside of their own state and changed healthcare advocacy programs to provide employees a single point of contact for all benefit and healthcare questions.

Delivering for Customers

In 2022, we signed an MOU with Shell to support alternative energy solutions for the future of shoreside and terminal operations. This includes advancing our port electrification vision through supporting a shoreside charging station at the Port of San Diego for our newly developed, all electric eTug.

Crowley was honored as Offshore Carrier of the Year by The Home Depot for the speed and efficiency of our shipping and supply chain service in Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands in 2022. The Home Depot cited Crowley’s reliability, innovative strategies and surge capabilities during emergencies, specifically noting our support during Hurricane Fiona. Besides Crowley’s containerized products and supplies shipping and logistics, we provided Home Depot with fuel to continue operations so customers impacted by the storm could acquire supplies.

Defense Freight Transportation Services (DFTS), managed by Crowley Solutions, offers the Department of Defense, other government agencies, customers and vendors a single touch point for transportation services. As the federal government’s primary contractor, our digital systems and strategies help optimize the government’s supply chain and freight costs to deliver consistent customer excellence, while offering solutions for a diverse range of defense needs.
