A great place to work. Henkel was named Top Employer Germany for the 13th and Top Employer China for the 6th consecutive year. This global certification program honors excellent working conditions based on an independent review of talent strategy, onboarding, training and development, leadership development, and corporate culture. Congratulations to both teams!
A new milestone in sustainable packaging. Henkel has now launched almost 700 million bottles made entirely of recycled plastics for Laundry & Home Care products in Europe. The recycled material comes – amongst other places – from Henkel’s partnership with the Plastic Bank. It has an almost 80 percent lower CO2 footprint compared to virgin plastic and contributes to a circular economy.
Standing up for sustainability. In the 2021 edition of the ‘Global 100 Most Sustainable Corporations in the World’, Henkel ranked 3rd among personal product companies and 88th in the overall assessment of more than 8,000 major global corporations. This shows once again how firmly sustainability has become anchored within Henkel's corporate culture.
Celebrating a decade of giving. The Fritz Henkel Stiftung recently celebrated its 10th anniversary. Since 2011, it’s supported projects across the globe aimed at promoting equal opportunities and education. To date, it’s provided donations totaling around 30 million euros that have benefited almost 3.5 million people.
Investing in each other. The #LearnForGood campaign rewards Henkel employees for digital upskilling. Each time they complete a self-development course, they’re awarded points. Once 15,000 points are reached, a special donation will be made to the “Teach for All” network, which provides children with vital digital education resources.
Shaping the future at Henkel. As a Team Lead for Packaging Innovation at Henkel Beauty Care, Antoine is at the heart of developing sustainable solutions that benefit the environment. What makes Henkel so unique for him is the way that creative minds are given the freedom they need to flourish.
A winning recipe for success. Henkel Poland has been awarded the Highest Quality HR Certificate by the Polish HR Management Association for the sixth year running. Once again, it shows the team is a reliable employer who cares about the safety, comfort, and development of employees. This latest award is especially significant due to the challenging circumstances faced over the past year.
Finding the happy medium. Allowing employees to enjoy a fair balance between their private and professional lives should be a fundamental part of modern corporate culture. As a mother of three and Henkel CHRO, Sylvie Nicol is therefore proud to support the #stayonboard initiative in its mission to promote equal chances for parents in the workplace.
Anytime, anywhere, any device. Thanks to a new HR cloud-platform, applying to Henkel has never been easier. Applicants can now put themselves forward for open roles in just 60 seconds from any device. This remarkable digitalization of Henkel?s HR processes has led to a 40 percent increase in applications in recent weeks.
Making a difference. Bryanna Wallace, Assistant Brand Manager at Kenra Professional put together a bank of resources to help people become better allies to the black community. The initiative quickly took Twitter and Facebook by storm and has amplified her message of being more informed, aware and empathetic in the struggle against racial injustice.
