We are a world in transition, faced with extraordinary shifts that continue to upend the current way business is, and should be, done. At the Adecco Group, we believe thePrivate sector has a critical role to play in helping to rebalance our world for the benefit of all. And we are committed to playing our part: as a leading talent solutions and advisory company, and one of the largest employers worldwide, we want to lead by example in how we conduct our business, help our stakeholders navigate through these turbulent times, and take an active role in creating brighter futures for all. With our Future@Work strategy, we are putting long-term, shared value creation at the centre of our strategy. We are committed to embracing a culture that consistently embeds material environmental, social and governance (ESG) considerations across our operations and value chain. To ensure we remain focused, we have translated our purpose into strategic goals that address the work-related sustainability needs of our core stakeholders, supported by three levers for impact that will help us drive meaningful action towards these goals. We want nothing less than to make the future work for everyone. This is our starting and end point for what we do. To truly make the future work for everyone, we are working collectively towards five overarching, interlinked goals that address the work-related needs of our key stakeholders: colleagues, candidates and associates, clients, and institutions and society more broadly. Goals that we believe have never been more important than now. Consciously and consistently embedding material environmental, social and governance (ESG) considerations across our value chain. The bedrock to achieving our vision is a deep understanding of the issues most material to our business and to our stakeholders. We conducted a comprehensive process to identify and prioritise these issues. We started with an analysis of existing work, international standards, regulations and best practices. To validate and prioritise our findings, we then engaged extensively with internal and external stakeholders, including clients, associates, colleagues, investors, suppliers, and representatives from institutions and the public at large, be it through an online dialogue with experts, a public online survey, internal workshops orPrivate meetings.
