For the third year in a row Stora Enso has collected statistics related to diversity. Age structure, employee structure by country, personnel turnover (%) and training days per employee have been reported as part of sustainability reporting. Patterns in the educational background of employees have been reported in Stora Enso’s Annual Report under Human Resources management.
Nationality ratios have not changed much over the last three years. The proportion of all Stora Enso employees working in Russia has risen considerably, reflecting where the Group has recently been expanding its activities.
