SMURFIT Kappa has announced the launch of a new inclusion and diversity (I&D) programme to “embrace and celebrate” its multi-cultural workforce around the world.
The ‘EveryOne’ initiative has been rolled out across Europe and the Americas following its debut at Smurfit Kappa’s European Management Conference in Berlin, where over 350 employees signed a ‘Pledge Wall’ as a sign of their commitment to make the company an even more inclusive place to work. This was mirrored in Miami at the Americas Management Conference, with over 150 managers signing the pledge.
Gianluca Castellini, vice president of human resources said, “We are very excited about launching EveryOne. The only thing that we truly have in common is diversity and we are encouraging people to harness the power of these differences and make the most of them. EveryOne means each one of us; every single person that makes up Smurfit Kappa. Each one of us has something unique to give and EveryOne seeks to give us all the platform and confidence to unpack and develop our talents.”
