Tesco Hungary has published its second Diversity Report, which highlights the activities and areas for improvement related to the supermarket chain's inclusive culture.
The results show that Tesco has made progress in increasing career opportunities for people with disabilities and women, as well as providing a range of ways to help young people who want to start their careers in a modern retailer. In this year's report, the company also disclosed the differences in total earnings between men and women.
The company’s statement says that as an employer of more than 10,000 colleagues, Tesco strives to provide a working environment where everyone feels safe and valued, so that they can be themselves and serve a diverse customer base a little better every day.
Following the first report in 2021, the company has now published the second edition of its Diversity Report with the title ‘Everyone is welcome at Tesco’, which sets out its plans, strategy and achievements to date in diversity and inclusion, and identifies areas where it still has work to do.
"This year has been an extra challenge for everyone because of the changes in the world. We are proud of our employees who have responded effectively to these challenges and have shown once again why working at Tesco is good. Our unhidden strategic goal is to create an environment where diversity is a core value and everyone values and respects differences. The fact that we have significantly increased the number of disabled colleagues in our stores since the beginning of the year, that we have been able to further increase the proportion of female managers and that we continue to support young people, offering them a workplace full of opportunity, development and acceptance, is proof that we are on the right track," the CEO of Tesco Hungary, Zsolt Pálinkás said.
As an open and inclusive company, Tesco enables young people to get an insight into the workings of a modern organization from their first job. Young colleagues are offered a wide range of development opportunities, such as on-the-job and e-learning professional training or leadership development through mentoring, while data shows that the productive age group of 18-24 years old is below the social average (12%). To counter this, several initiatives have been launched over the past year, the statement says.
