Catom Annual Report 2022 EN

Staffing and organisation

The breakdown of personnel by activity is as follows:

The average number of employees, expressed in FTE, rose during the reporting year from 338 to 382. This increase was mainly due to the acquisition of petrol stations and the acquisition of Slurink Holding. Due to the steep increase of motor fuel prices in 2022 the average turnover per employee in 2021 increased substantially by 25%. All personnel members are employed by the Dutch companies. Catom has no employees in other countries. It is expected that, with autonomous growth, the workforce may again decrease slightly as a result of efficiency measures and investments in new technologies. Any drop in the number of employees can be fully achieved through natural attrition. However, it is quite plausible that such a potential drop will be more than offset by further growth, including through acqui sitions, and particularly through a further increase of the number of petrol stations operated by the company itself.

• 10 in management and staff positions • 296 in sales and financial departments • 76 logistics employees

The percentage of women in the company’s workforce decreased from 52% to 48%.

The Executive Board consisted of 1 person at year-end 2022 (2 persons in 2021) and the male/female ratio is 1 to 0. The Catom Board of Management consisted of 4 persons at year-end 2022 (3 persons in 2021) and the male/female ratio is 3 to 1. The policy for a balanced ratio of men and women on the Board and in management

positions only focuses on a person’s suitability to perform a specific job.

The Catom Executive Board highly appre ciates the efforts and dedication of its staff.

Their efforts make it possible to realise the company’s ambition to improve every year, both in terms of performance towards customers and in terms of results.
