The ratio between direct and indirect in 2022 dropped 14% when compared to 2021. These professionals mainly work in support functions (food, security, concierge, and janitorial staff), as well as in maintenance, wood transportation, shipping, forestry, and harvesting due to the seasonal nature of the business.

The seasonality of the harvests, as well as the support and maintenance functions, directly impact the number of indirect professionals in the operations. In Corporate, we also have professionals from the facilities area making up the number of indirect professionals.

The base for the indicator started in 2016, considering managers who already held or took on a top management position that year (for positions taken before 2016, even professionals coming from other locations are considered locals). As of 2016, the base was set and updated according to manager movement. The local community reference is statewide.

By 2021, 100% of the directors and managers in São Paulo and 50% in Paraná were hired in the same states as our operating units. The results shown in the table reflect the growth of our operations, especially in Paraná, which drives us to search for qualified professionals, often outside the state as well.

As taxas de saídas em 2023 foi superior à 2022 em todas as regiões. Destaques para as regiões Nordeste e Sudeste, com crescimento de 13pp e 8pp, respectivamente, em comparação à 2022. O aumento da taxa de saída pode ser explicada pelo aumento de capacidade anunciadas pelos principais concorrentes e disputa de talentos entre as empresas das mesmas regiões. Além disso, em algumas regiões sofremos com periodos de safra de outros segmentos, como frutas e fumo.
