Last week we communicated the request asking for your support by agreeing to participate in a global salary deferral programme. This involves your voluntary agreement to defer 10% of your salary for May, June and July, and it will be repaid to you on 1^st December as part of the November payroll. This followed our CEO’s announcement to all CEMEX employees about mitigation measures to protect the future of the business and ensure we are in the strongest position possible to recover from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

A big THANK YOU to everyone who has already signed up to this – there has been a significant uptake with hundreds of our UK colleagues offering their help. This will really help our cashflow position in the short term.

The programme ends on Friday 1^st May, so if you would like to take part, here are the instructions again – please click on the link and complete the form here with your decision by 1^st May 2020

If you would like to participate in the programme and do not have a work PC or laptop to access the link –

• Please complete the form that can be downloaded here: https://cemexuknews.co.uk/downloads. Once complete, send it to: gb-hrcentraladmin@cemex.com or give it to your Line Manager so that they can email it to HR.

• Otherwise you can simply send an email to: gb-hrcentraladmin@cemex.com, giving your full details (name, site where you work, Line Manager, contact telephone number) stating that you would like to volunteer for the programme.

A quick summary to explain how your participation can be downloaded here:  https://cemexuknews.co.uk/downloads will really secure our future as we navigate the impacts on our business from the COVID-19 pandemic.

We do understand that not everyone will feel that they are in a position to participate in this programme. However, if you can, it would be greatly appreciated and you would be playing an important part in helping CEMEX’s cashflow and protecting the future of the company during a very difficult period. HR will collate and process the returns, keeping the details completely confidential.

We hope you and your family and friends stay well.
