Maintaining the highest standards in everything we do
Our ESG strategy is embedded in our business purpose
We are committed to running a responsible and transparent business, setting high ethical standards for our industry and embracing corporate governance best practices.
To achieve these goals, ManpowerGroup UK works to our global Principles of Governance – rules that guide us to ensure the highest ethical standards for business conduct and responsible employment across regions and industries around the world.
We prioritise ESG at the highest levels of our organisation. Our Board of Directors has oversight of our ESG efforts and disclosures, and is responsible for reviewing our ESG performance, sustainability trends and Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) process at least twice a year.
Our Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) function is designed to establish a standard risk management framework to assess risk from the bottom-up, defining roles and responsibilities based on the 2017 Committee of Sponsoring Organisations (COSO) framework.
We continue to integrate ESG considerations into our ERM processes, with our Board of Directors overseeing management’s implementation of the ERM process to mitigate our company’s exposure to risk.
We recognise that our global reach, working with hundreds of thousands of organisations around the world, means we can influence the way people are treated across complex multinational supply chains. By respecting and promoting the International Labour Organization’s (ILO) declared Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work, we are helping to ensure that work is a source of dignity and purpose.
The frequency and sophistication of cyber-crimes are rising, and we take our responsibility to be vigilant and educate our people seriously. Annually, we require training for all our employees on data protection, privacy and information security. We also make it easy for our employees to report concerns – through phishing alarm technology integrated with our email system and our Information Security Incident Management Policy that clearly outlines the communication and escalation process for privacy-related events.
