PST CLC Mitsui-Soko continued to develop its human resources area in fiscal year 2025. Despite increasing administrative demands related to changes in labour law, the company managed to stabilise recruitment, increase headcount, and at the same time systematically invest in employee training.
As of 31 March 2025, PST CLC Mitsui-Soko had a total of 474 employees in FTE terms. Compared to the previous year, the number of staff continued to grow. The average monthly salary at the company reached CZK 44,578 in fiscal year 2025. “Fiscal year 2025 was very intensive in terms of human resources. We had to respond to a number of changes in labour legislation, update internal documentation, and at the same time deal with growing demands on administration and software solutions. Despite this, we managed to fill selected positions across the company and further strengthen our team,” says Iva Šebková, HR Director at PST CLC Mitsui-Soko.
Employee training remained a significant area of focus. The company continued its project “Corporate Training at PST CLC Mitsui-Soko a.s. – OPZ 47”, implemented with support from the Operational Programme Employment Plus. Within this project, the company organised a total of 68 courses, 30 of which took place in fiscal year 2025. A total of 120 employees participated in the training.
The courses focused on both soft skills development and professional knowledge. Employees received training in areas such as effective communication, performance evaluation and feedback, project management, labour law for managers, stress management, and Japanese studies (japanology). The training also included professional courses in the areas of freight transport, customs services, and transport logistics.
“We see training as a key component of the development of our people and the company as a whole. We focus not only on the professional knowledge employees need for their day-to-day work, but also on skills important for team leadership, communication, handling demanding situations, and the long-term development of the working environment,” adds Iva Šebková.
PST CLC Mitsui-Soko also maintains long-term cooperation with schools. In fiscal year 2025, the company provided mandatory work placements for four students from the University of Pardubice and from the Prague Higher Vocational and Secondary School of Transport. The placements took place in the customs services and freight transport divisions.
Team-building activities also formed part of company life. Employees participated in a relay race in Prague, where PST CLC Mitsui-Soko was represented by four four-member teams. “We are pleased that our employees participate not only in training activities, but also in shared events that promote collaboration and company culture. These activities also contribute to PST CLC Mitsui-Soko remaining a stable and attractive employer,” concludes Iva Šebková.
