Our people – our strength
Our people
The greatest asset in the Beverages Group are our employees, all 1500 of them. Our core values are trust, passion for excellence, curiosity, togetherness and a thirst for learning. We consider health, prosperity, decent jobs and equality to be the basic conditions that need to be met at the workplace and that is why in the Beverages Group we continuously work on the realisation of these goals. We take care of our employees throughout three focus areas.
Health and safety
We continuously invest in health and safety and by providing the essential conditions for productivity.
To achieve that, we have taken the following steps:

we consult our employees regarding new technologies
