Nestlé in society: Creating Shared Value Nutrition, health and wellness Rural development Water Environmental sustainability Human rights and compliance Our people G4-EC6, Training and education G4-DMA When talking about sustainable development, we must keep in mind that employment is a key element of social integration and economic development. Yes, we will need to feed an additional 2 billion people over the next few decades, but we will also have to create jobs for them. To Nestlé, the jobs dimension is as important as the environmental dimension.” Laurent Freixe, Executive Vice President Nestlé S.A., Head of Zone Americas To make a bigger impact, we have also joined the Global Apprenticeships Network (GAN), a coalition of companies, employers’ federations and associations that addresses the global youth unemployment crisis and the need for business to ensure skills for the future. The network was founded in 2013 by the International Organisation of Employers and the Business and Industry Advisory Committee to the OECD (BIAC), with the support of the ILO. Members are committed to activities including sharing good practices within the network and improving the status of apprenticeship programmes through advocacy campaigns. Nestlé’s membership was announced at an event to mark the opening of GAN’s national office in Spain, attended by officials and business leaders. In May, Nestlé Indonesia participated in the launch of INAN (Indonesia National Apprenticeship Network) in Jakarta. Nestlé Indonesia is among the first 15 companies to join the apprenticeship network, which was formed by GAN in collaboration with APINDO (an Indonesian business/ entrepreneur association). INAN aims to promote apprenticeship programmes in Indonesia to help build industry skills and capabilities of high school and vocational graduates. It will also give companies a forum for sharing best practices, technical training facilities and sourcing apprenticeship graduates. Helping young job seekers in the Americas More than 7000 young job seekers across Brazil will be offered the chance to develop their professional skills and increase their employability, as part of our Global Youth Initiative in the country. We already employ about 21 000 people in Brazil, and will offer 7000 opportunities to under-30s by 2017, of which 2800 will be apprenticeships or traineeships. An additional 30 000 young people will benefit from readiness for work activities, such as career counselling, CV workshops and interview training at schools, colleges and Nestlé sites. Nestlé Brazil will also encourage its 11 000 suppliers to join the initiative and create their own opportunities for young people. Elsewhere in the Americas, our Global Youth Initiative was launched in Central America in August. It will provide 1000 opportunities. Nestlé Chile and Nestlé Canada also announced their activities in 2015; the former aims to support more than 6000 young Chileans by 2017, and in Canada Nestlé will offer tangible training opportunities and experiences to more than 5000 young people. Expanding our US apprenticeship programme Nestlé has launched Project Opportunity in the United States, a career acceleration programme to help people of all ages gain work experience and strengthen their skills in food and beverage manufacturing. By 2017, we have pledged to hire 1000 paid interns and trainees, and significantly expand the number of apprenticeship positions we offer across our US operations. We will also expand our US Readiness for Work programme, designed to facilitate the transition between school and employment, to reach more than 300 000 people by the end of 2017, by participating in job fairs and organising information sessions and workshops. Offering Nescafé internships in Japan Following the Nestlé Cocoa Plan Internship offered in 2014, Nestlé Japan has launched the Nescafé Ambassador Internship course. The initiative helps young people with the transition from education to work. It provides an opportunity for students to develop their business understanding, identifying and developing skills around innovation and leadership. The course is targeted at small- and medium-sized companies and through it interns can become a Nescafé Ambassador, taking office coffee orders and managing co-workers’ payments. They make the coffee with machines provided for free by Nestlé. With a business model that is unique to Japan, 1867 people applied to take part in 2015 and 18 were accepted as Nescafé Ambassadors. Interns are not paid, but receive access to specific training programmes, workshops and campaigns. Supporting Government initiatives for youth in Pakistan Nestlé Pakistan has partnered with the Prime Minister’s Youth Business Loan Scheme, managed by the National Bank of Pakistan, to generate self-employment opportunities for young, talented vendors. In the first phase, young dairy farmers will be granted loans to establish new businesses or develop existing ones. Nestlé Pakistan will assist by providing the young people with training to assure best-quality products and optimise productivity. Nestlé will also work with the Lahore Chamber of Commerce and Industry and the Small and Medium Enterprises Development Authority to identify organisations that need support. Nestlé will provide expertise to build the capabilities of young people, so that their products and services can become a part of our value chain.
