We prioritize our people's well-being by creating a supportive environment for both professional growth and personal happiness.
We take pride in having a highly diverse workforce, and actively promote and celebrate diversity throughout our organization.
That's why our European Diversity & Inclusion Council, led by the Executive Vice President for our region, meets quarterly to discuss our shared aspirations and develop strategies for a more inclusive workplace. In the coming year, we have planned three interactive workshops that will be accessible to all colleagues.
We prioritize diversity and inclusion by providing comprehensive training to our managers. We firmly believe that our leaders should embody our values, which is why we offer Diversity & Inclusion Training to every manager across our business. Likewise, we are proud to announce that all of our current managers have successfully completed this course. In Ireland, we actively participate in Pride every year by proudly showcasing our Brink's Pride trucks!
All Brink’s women are welcome to join the Women’s Network Group at Brink’s. The group aims to create an environment at Brink’s that provides guidance, support and safe space to speak, share and learn.
Established in 2022, our community has grown to around 150 members. Our efforts are divided into three key streams: Communication Events, Health in the Workplace and Learning & Development. From insightful webinars on Breast Cancer Awareness to coping with stress, we've initiated discussions that matter. We celebrated International Women’s Day and hosted a special Christmas event. There’s much more to come!
In tandem with the Women’s Network is the Plus One Initiative. This innovative scheme asks every manager to hire, promote and/or develop one woman in their local organization. We hope to see many women enjoy greater success due to the initiative.
From installing solar panels in our cash centers in Mexico to launching an initiative to train Ukrainian refugees in Romania, to increasing the number of electric vehicles in our fleet, we are serious about reducing our impact on the environment and supporting the communities where we work.
In Ireland, we have installed solar panels on all of the newest additions to our fleet which is greatly decreasing carbon emissions!
Every country engages with its own community and offers the help and support needed locally. Brink’s People are given the opportunity to volunteer in their local area and help out where it’s needed.
