Remuneration statement
The remuneration statement presents Cargotec's decisionmaking procedure, remuneration principles and the remuneration paid to members of the Board, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and the Executive Board in 2018.
The Annual General Meeting (AGM) decides on the remuneration of members of the Board of Directors, on the basis of a proposal made by the Board's Nomination and Compensation Committee (NCC). In determining such remuneration, the committee takes account of the Board members' responsibilities and obligations towards the company. Furthermore, the committee compares the Board's remuneration packages to those paid by other companies of the same size operating in a comparable business environment.
Cargotec's compensation and benefits policy is applied in determining the total remuneration of the CEO and Executive Board. The policy is approved by the Board of Directors. Based on a proposal by the NCC, the Board decides on the annual base salary, short-term incentive programmes and benefits of the CEO and the Executive Board. In addition, the Board of Directors decides on long-term incentive programmes and on the target group and allocation of such programmes based on a proposal by the NCC.
Remuneration at Cargotec is characterised by five key principles:
The Board members receive from the company only remuneration related to their Board and Committee memberships and Board work. Board members are not included in Cargotec's short-term or long-term incentive programmes. Of the total annual remuneration, 30 percent is paid in Cargotec's class B shares and the rest in cash. The shares are purchased at market price on a yearly basis. Board members must keep the shares they have obtained as annual remuneration under their ownership for at least two years from the day they obtained them.
The total remuneration structure of the CEO and Executive Board comprises a fixed base salary including fringe benefits and incentive plans, for which both short- and long-term targets have been defined. The variable salary component consists of a share-based incentive programme linked to the company's long-term targets, as well as short-term incentive programme. Relevant market practices are closely followed when defining the remuneration elements.
