ManpowerGroup is committed to the highest standards of health and safety.

In adopting these standards, we seek to create a workplace and work systems that enable all employees to feel safe and secure.

We endeavor to provide a safe working environment for all of our employees, associates, contractors and consultants. We focus on compliance with health and safety legislation within our own business operations and also apply this same standard as a matter of priority when reviewing whether to place associates, contractors and consultants in a client's work environment. We will not knowingly allow our people to work in an unsafe work environment. We expect our employees, associates, contractors and consultants to comply with all health and safety regulations, policies and procedures. We will provide appropriate training to employees and associates, as befits the needs of each role.

We recognise the importance of work-life balance, and aim to foster a culture of wellbeing by providing a variety of tools, education and resources that reinforce healthy lifestyle choices.

Our global and local leadership commit to ensuring the overall success of our health, safety and wellness programs by:

  • Communicating clear policies and guidelines on workplace health, safety and wellness

  • Visibly and actively supporting employee involvement in our health, safety and wellness programs

  • Providing adequate resources to the programs
