Our commitments

Pernod Ricard is an international, decentralised Group that is continuing to grow. The Group is reliant on the talents of its employees as it pursues continued growth.

Accordingly, Pernod Ricard has implemented a human resources policy based on two core commitments.

Develop careers and encourage mobility

Pernod Ricard encourages corporate spirit, enthusiasm and initiative amongst employees. The Group encourages career development through:

  • annual performance reviews that sum up the achievements of the previous year, set goals for the year to come, identify areas where progress is needed and establish the employee’s future prospects.
  • training sessions,
  • a “Potential Development Review”, to identify managers who might be suitable for senior management positions in the main subsidiaries,
  • “careers committees” that encourage international mobility. These committees list positions available within the Group in the medium term for each key function and distribute the lists to potential candidates.

These tools and systems provide real opportunities for managers within the Group, including the possibility of a high-profile position.


Rewarding performance with motivating remuneration

Pernod Ricard’s remuneration policy aims to attract, retain and
motivate current and prospective employees. With this in mind, salaries are benchmarked on a regular basis.

Pernod Ricard has also implemented systems for:

  • individual performance-related pay (through bonuses, stock options and free share schemes, depending on the level of responsibility),
  • collective performance-related pay, based on profits (incentives and profit sharing). 

In June 2007, Pernod Ricard implemented its first free share distribution scheme.
