L’ORÉAL’S COMMITMENT…
TO PROMOTE DIVERSITY
L’Oréal promotes cultural, ethnic and social diversity within its organisation.
In December 2004 we signed up to the Diversity Charter in France.
The Charter was drafted by the Institut du Mécénat de Solidarité, a
French business association, at the impetus of Claude Bébéar, its
chairman and the author of the report Les entreprises aux couleurs
de la France. It was signed by more than 200 companies in 2005.
Extract: “Encouraging pluralism and fostering diversity through recruitment and career
management helps our company progress. It makes us more efficient and enhances the
quality of employee relations. It can positively impact our company’s image among our customers,
outside service providers and consumers, both in France and the rest of the world.
The Diversity Charter adopted by our company seeks to underscore our commitment to promoting
cultural, ethnic and social diversity within our organisation.”
