Diversity, equity, and inclusion is our strength

At Sodexo, we recognise the value and strength that our diverse workforce brings to our business and the clients and consumers we serve.  

Our DE&I strategy is reinforced by our Code of Conduct, which sets out the expectation for all our team members and reinforces our zero-tolerance policy on gender-based harassment, racism, discrimination, sexual harassment and bullying.

The Sodexo Speak Up Ethics Line allows everyone working for or on behalf of Sodexo or with whom Sodexo has or has had some type of business relationship to raise concerns about possible misconduct – including discrimination or harassment – in a safe and confidential environment.
