Health and safety

Independent auditors regularly assess our factories to ensure high standards of health and safety as well as employee health and wellbeing. We are taking a proactive approach to protect our people and maintain safe working conditions across all sites.

Employee wellbeing

Our employees are central to our success so we want to ensure their wellbeing in every aspect: physical, mental, financial and social. Our programmes aim to help our teams thrive both at work and beyond.
