The policy explicitly highlights our dedication to ensuring freedom of association, the right to collective bargaining, the elimination of forced, trafficked, or compulsory labour, the effective abolition of child labour, and the elimination of discrimination in employment and occupation, among other critical issues.

Our annual global People Matter survey aims at retrieving employees’ perspectives and opinions on satisfaction and motivation across almost 70 questions. The themes assessed within this anonymous survey include the degree of trust, openness, and transparency felt by our employees with regards to collaboration and the management bodies and the level of satisfaction within several aspects of the employees’ work life and conditions, e.g., job content, physical working conditions, compensation and employment terms, development opportunities, workload, stress, inclusion and diversity, and potential harassment at the workplace. The results are shared with the Group Executive Team for their strategic planning of priorities, activities, and follow-up actions. People leaders use the results within their respective teams to enable dialogues about potential improvement initiatives, ensuring a safe and inclusive working environment where everyone can thrive, perform, and grow.
