Health and Safety
Health and Safety is an integral part of Sodexo’s mission to improve Quality of Life:
-
Every day, in 72 countries, Sodexo serves 100 million consumers, all of whom rely on our health and safety systems
-
Every day, our 460,000 employees rely on Sodexo to provide safe working conditions
-
Every day, our clients, and the wider communities in which we operate, trust Sodexo to provide safe services
For all of these reasons, health and safety is a global strategic priority for the Group. Sodexo is committed to a global health and safety culture and world class health and safety performance. We know that integrating health and safety into everything we do minimizes risk to people and property.
Sodexo’s global health and safety management system is based on OHSAS18001 and includes 18 mandatory core processes. The management system delivers the Group Health and Safety Policy expectations in each business entity. In addition, Group Reference Standards define minimum global standards for specific health and safety topics.
Salus, the Group’s global health and safety software platform, generates KPIs for each element of the management system. The KPIs are used to define appropriate actions to continuously improve health and safety.
Salus is our global health and safety software platform, where our people around the world share experiences to improve health and safety. Learning from all incidents drives continuous improvement. This is a mandatory expectation defined in Sodexo’s Group Health and Safety Policy.
Salus is a global, multi-lingual, web-based platform accessible to all Sodexo operations and health and safety teams. Incident information, including near-misses, is used to define the best preventive actions. Salus is also used to generate KPIs for Sodexo’s global health and safety management system.
