Along the way, we create and provide equal opportunities for everyone, everywhere. We continuously create an inclusive environment and welcome people from all walks of life. We are empowered to do our best and innovate while living our unique life and work. Together, we dare to disrupt and turn our bold ideas into reality.
Meaningful
Schneider’s purpose is to empower all to make the most of our energy and resources, bridging progress and sustainability for all. At Schneider, we call this Life Is On.
Our mission is to be your digital partner for Sustainability and Efficiency.
We adhere to the high standards of governance and ethics.
- Sustainability: Sustainability is at the heart of our purpose and our action. Not only do we walk the talk, but we are also part of the solution for customers and communities. With only 10 years left to limit global temperature increase and ever-increasing expectations for a better life and resilient business, good is not enough anymore. That's why we are taking sustainability to the next level.
- Check out our 2021-2025 Schneider Sustainability Impact program here. We have 6 big commitments and 11 global targets and local objectives to make sustainability a reality.
Inclusive
We want to be the most diverse, inclusive and equitable company, globally.
We value differences, and welcome people from all walks of life.
We believe in equal opportunities for everyone, everywhere.
- Gender Equality: Our equal opportunity rewards policies and programs are applied consistently to all employees worldwide
- HeForShe: In 2015, we joined the UN Women HeForShe IMPACT 10x10x10 to be a champion of promoting gender equality. Take a look at our HeForShe Proven Solutions.
- Pay Equity: Great people expect and deserve fair pay. We’ve committed to implementing a global pay equity review process that covers 95% of our employee population by 2020. In fact, we managed to exceed this goal, reaching 99.6% last year. We hire at competitive and fair levels based on role and experience, regardless of gender.
- Global Family Leave: Recognizing that definition of family, life and work are changing every day, we have defined "leave" and "family" in an inclusive way so that our employees can manage their unique life and work.
Empowered
Freedom breeds innovation.
We believe that empowerment generates high performance, personal fulfillment and fun.
We empower our people to use their judgment, do the best for our customers, and make the most of their energy.
- Flexibility at Work Policy: Our employees wanted more flexibility and we heard them loud and clear. We wanted to ensure our people are enabled and empowered to perform at their best and manage their unique lives and work. In 2020, we refreshed our global flexibility at work policy which introduced the hybrid work model- a mix of working from home and working from the office across the company, for everyone. Employees whose roles allowed could work at least 2 days from home if they choose. Learn more about our updated policy from our CHRO here.
- Employee Share Ownership: Our employee share ownership program is market-leading and allows you to share in our collective success. When Schneider wins, we all win.
