At ManpowerGroup, we believe that work can change the world. Our company started with the principle of \u201cdoing well by doing good.\u201d And for more than 70 years, we have been committed to sustainable and meaningful work.<\/p>

Our ESG approach (formerly \u2018CSR\u2019) focuses on the environment, social impact, and good governance. Our Working to Change the World plan is aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. It’s a mouthful, but that’s how we take responsibility.<\/p>

We set the standard in our industry and help people, businesses, and society move forward. One job at a time.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

On the way to climate neutrality with more sustainable ways of working.<\/strong><\/p>

The health and safety of people and the protection of the environment are paramount. ManpowerGroup aims to be Net Zero globally by 2045.

Meaningful work for everyone. <\/strong><\/p>

At ManpowerGroup, we believe in work that matters and is accessible to everyone. We help people develop their talents through programs such as Experis Academy and Manpower’s MyPath. In doing so, we also support young people, refugees, and others who are distanced from the labor market. At the same time, we are actively committed to diversity and inclusion (DEIB), both within our organization and beyond. This is how we build employability and meaningful work for everyone.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

We believe in responsible and transparent business practices. <\/b><\/p>

We set high ethical standards for ourselves and for our sector, and follow best practices in the field of good governance. This is how we create sustainable value for all our stakeholders. We do this through open dialogue, strong partnerships, and responsible choices. Respect for human rights and social impact is our guiding principle in this regard.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

ESG is neither an add-on, a result, a nice extra, nor a passing fad. It\u2019s a journey, in good times and during challenges, and the only way of doing business to create broader shared value for all.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Young talent is the future. We help young people find their way in the job market. With insight into work, guidance in making choices, and practical support such as job application training. We believe that different generations in the workplace strengthen each other by learning from one another. This is how we maximize everyone’s potential.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Digitalization is rapidly changing the world of work. Some jobs are disappearing, but new ones are also being created. That’s why we help people adapt and learn new skills. This ensures they remain employable and prevents mismatches. And valuable talent is retained for the future.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Everyone has the right to meaningful work Unfortunately, however, this is not equally easy for everyone to find. ManpowerGroup helps people who are distanced from the labor market to take the step into employment. We don’t look at obstacles, we look at talent. In this way, we contribute to an inclusive labor market, greater diversity in the workplace, and new opportunities for employers.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
