Marrying the welfare of staff with increasing margins is not an easy business. Indonesian shrimp giant Central Proteinaprima (CP Prima) is striving to get the balance right.
The company, which is in the process of recovering from the devastating impact of the infectious myonecrosis virus (IMNV) -- which decimated its plans of hitting 150,000 metric tons of shrimp a year -- has a tough task ahead of it.
Not only is it having to reduce stocking densities and adjust its farming to recover from the disease as it follows a plan of cautious expansion, it also has to keep the 25,000 employees -- many from different religions and ethnic groups -- and their families happy.
