Diversity and Inclusion -Mental Health

November 2012

Sodexo rolled out their Spirit of Inclusion Training across the company led by Natalie Bickford, HR Director (joint winner of the Equality & Inclusion Champion of the Year award at the Employers Network for Equality and Inclusion (enei) 2012 Awards)

The in-house training programme, Spirit of Inclusion, is designed to increase awareness of the moral, legal and business matters relating to diversity to help our managers interact with and lead diverse teams in a way that is inclusive, productive and in line with Sodexo values. Nearly all of our 4,000 managers and supervisors had participated in the programme by the end of 2011. To underline our success in this field, a number of our clients have asked for support in developing their own diversity and inclusion strategies
