When Women Do Better, Economies To Do Better
Mara Swan, ManpowerGroup
ManpowerGroupFew companies have helped empower women like ManpowerGroup – both inside and outside our organization. As the world leader in innovative workforce solutions for 65 years, ManpowerGroup was one of the first employers to bring women into the workforce decades ago and remains a pioneer for women today. We not only provide experience and employment opportunities to women that they previously may not have had access to, but equally important, we nurture a culture that respects how diversity of thought inspires the productivity, innovation, and collaboration companies need in the Human Age – an era of certain uncertainty requiring flexibility and new approaches to work. more[...]

Self-Assessment on Human Rights
Joël Tronchon, Groupe SEB
SEB GroupeHaving become a participant of the UN Global Compact in 2003, Groupe SEB is committed to respecting the Ten Principles of the agreement.
