Last month, all Sodexo colleagues were invited to take part in our global engagement survey, Voice. We’re delighted to share the results of the survey, which can be used to start conversations within teams about how to address areas for improvement, and how to maintain the good things we’re already doing.
Teams across the globe are getting for WasteLESS Week 2020,which starts on Monday 26 October, ready to reduce the waste our operations create. This year in the UK and Ireland, we are focussing on food waste - something that we can all help with, both in the workplace and at home.
The future of our local communities is in our hands as the Coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic continues to have a severe impact on third sector organisations, including Stop Hunger’s charity partners. For the first time ever, the Foundation is asking for your feedback to shape its future focus - show your heart by taking part in the new Stop Hunger survey.
With existing safety practices still in place, and new ways of working being frequently introduced, we are asking you to keep your mind open to changes and learn why it’s important for us to keep safety on the brain.
With sites continuing to reopen across the region, we must never forget that food allergens present a danger to over two million people in the UK and Ireland. In the final chapter of our mini series on back-to-site safety, we’re talking about food allergen processes.
We’re all juggling responsibilities in the new normal, but as new ways of working become the norm, it can be easy to get complacent with safety. This week, we focus on near misses and hazard spotting - a good way for sites to stay on top of their safety game and prevent potentially harmful accidents from ever occurring.
Simply asking you to be safe is easy enough, but making sure you feel prepared is another story. Returning to work can be pretty daunting after the year we’ve had so far. Help us help you be prepared with these five safety tips.
With our central offices re-opening, client sites rising again and many people returning to school and work after the summer holidays, it’s time to remind ourselves about Sodexo’s number one priority – keeping colleagues safe.
Four charitable organisations have received a windfall share of a £90,000 donation from Sodexo’s global Stop Hunger Endowment Fund helping them in their continuing fight against hunger.
From April 2018, the minimum contributions for the workplace pension will increase - this is a nationwide change, involving millions of people and their employers across the UK.
