United by a common vision and shared values, our people<br />
are the main resource of Sodexho. Every day, 98% of our<br />
324,000 employees worldwide are in personal contact with<br />
our clients and customers, providing services as part of our<br />
mission to improve the Quality of Daily Life.<br />
Quality of Life also is a key focus in our approach to human<br />
resource management. The performance of a business is<br />
closely linked to the motivation of its employees which in<br />
turn is infl uenced by their degree of empowerment, their<br />
development opportunities and their day-to-day satisfaction<br />
in their working environment.<br />
To be the benchmark for all of our business activities, our human resource<br />
management must combine the progression of our people with economic<br />
performance. Our equal opportunities approach means that everyone can<br />
become part of the team, build their expertise, expand their skill set, assume<br />
new responsibilities, perform better and enjoy a fulfi lling professional life.<br />
The diversity of origins, cultures and expertise of our people is also a driver of<br />
progress and growth for Sodexho. It is one of our greatest strengths, providing<br />
a basis for developing synergies to serve our clients, our consumers and the<br />
community better.<br />
Through our ability to identify, train, develop and retain talent, and to<br />
draw strength from our tremendous diversity, collectively we can harness<br />
the power to build the Sodexho of tomorrow: the world leader in Quality<br />
of Life services.<br />

Our human resource management must<br />
combine the progression of our people with<br />
economic performance.<br />
