113 SUSTAINABILITY STATEMENT Integrated Annual Report 2025 SUSTAINABILITY STATEMENT Total Turnover by Employment Category FY2023 FY2024 FY2025 Executive 1 2 6 Senior Management 0 1 3 Management 0 2 4 Non-Executive/Technical staff 2 0 1 LABOUR PRACTICES, DIVERSITY & INCLUSION (CONT’D) Hiring and Attrition Al-`Aqar prioritises diversity and inclusion as fundamental to building a resilient organisation and supporting the effective management of healthcare assets. The REIT recognises that a diverse workforce, supported by an inclusive culture, enhances decision-making, strengthens risk management and contributes to long-term sustainable value creation The REIT’s approach to diversity and inclusion is guided by fair employment practices, merit-based recruitment, and equal opportunity principles. It is committed to providing a respectful and inclusive workplace, free from discrimination and harassment, where employees are valued based on their skills, experience and performance, subject to job requirements and nature of work. These principles are applied consistently across all levels of the organisation and supported by policies covering recruitment, remuneration, performance management, and employee development. The increase in employee turnover rate in 2025 was primarily attributable to manpower rationalisation and organisational restructuring initiatives. This included five employees exiting under a Mutual Separation Scheme (MSS), while four employees were redeployed to a shared services entity within JLG Group. Accordingly, the spike reflects strategic workforce realignment rather than underlying issues related to employee retention or engagement.
