AP Moller-Maersk has done away with its sustainability team, including group director of the department, as it cuts jobs and merges its environmental work into other divisions.

"Sustainability continues to play a vital role in AP Moller-Maersk and our ambition stays the same," a spokeswoman for the group told TradeWinds.

"Therefore, we will also continue to drive our sustainability agenda, although in a reorganised set-up."
