DHL EXPRESS ACHIEVES BRONZE ASIA-PACIFIC STEVIE® AWARD IN JAPAN
Press Release: Tokyo Japan, July 5, 2023

DHL Express, the world’s leading international express service provider, has achieved the Bronze Asia-Pacific Stevie® Award for the "Innovative Achievement in Organization Recovery" category at the 10th annual Stevie Awards in Asia Pacific. The award is to recognize the innovation in approaches and initiatives taken to boost engagement and communication among customer service employees.
“We are very honored that our efforts in workplace improvement, where we focus on our everyday heroes, have been recognized. We will continue to work together as a company to provide the highest quality of customer service,” said Tony Khan, President and Representative Director of DHL Express Japan.
The award recognizes how a company has innovated to improve employee engagement despite busy periods as a result of an increase in customer queries. This has resulted not only in increased employee satisfaction but also a positive contribution to the business.
Looking back on the lack of opportunities for employee involvement, DHL Express has implemented various programs within the department, such as "Customer Service Week" and other customer service quality contests. This includes planning, preparation and execution of these activities led by frontline employees. As a result, the company achieved the highest-ever employee engagement level score in the Employee Opinion Survey in 2022. The customer service team also received the highest-ever scores for providing quality information on potential new customers to the sales team. Additionally, the customer service team was also recognized for going above and beyond their roles by promoting the company’s services to customers. This resulted in a positive contribution to the business.
The Asia-Pacific Stevie® Awards are an international business awards competition that are open to all organizations in the Asia-Pacific region. The focus of the awards is on recognizing innovation in all its forms. For the past 21 years, the Stevie® Awards have been widely recognized as the world's premier business awards for workplace achievement. This year's Asia-Pacific Stevie® Awards received more than 800 nominations from the Asia Pacific region.
