Our workforce of 32,000 employees in 42 countries includes around 100 nationalities. A diverse group. We believe that diverse and inclusive teams lead to higher levels of innovation, a learning culture, better customer understanding and cultural awareness, as well as higher financial results. It also makes a better place to work. When it comes to Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging (DIB), our long-term goal is to be the mirror of our society. To achieve our ambition to create an inclusive work culture, we have a strong action planed organized around a dedicated DIB Working Group to screen our practices, increase internal awareness and train our HRs and leaders. We also have two gender goals: to have 50% of our new hires be females by 2025 and reach 27% of female employees by the same year.

It implies working hand in hand with our partners towards a gender-aware market.
