Through initiatives like the Disability Inclusion Playbook and Sensitivity Training, the company strengthened engagement and ensured all employees feel valued, empowered, and included.

Through programs like Advance into Management, immersive cross-functional learning, and a strong mentoring culture, employees gain the skills, agility, and confidence to drive operational excellence and deliver exceptional customer experiences. As a result, FedEx achieved a 95% employee engagement score and a 91% inclusion score. 

“This recognition reaffirms that our people are our greatest asset and the driving force behind our long-term success. It inspires us to continue pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in people, development, and organizational culture. These awards are a powerful motivator to continue building a workplace where our people can thrive and grow,” said Maribeth Espinosa, managing director, FedEx Philippines. “By continuing to invest in leadership, inclusion, and workforce agility, we’re not only building a stronger FedEx today, we’re also ensuring our talented team has future-ready skills needed to create what’s next in our business and our customers.”
