Pernod Ricard is committed to building workforces that reflect the richness of our society, the marketplace, and communities in which we operate. We are proud to foster a culture where everyone feels respected, heard, and valued.
Where everyone can thrive
We pride ourselves on providing environments where people and performance go hand in hand. How we work together and engage with each other is built into the performance management system, so that our values are integrated into everyday life.
Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) are open to all. These voluntary, employee-led initiatives supported by leaders help to create a sense of belonging. They empower employees to share their voices and encourage everyone to be an ally.
Welcoming all Abilities
The disability framework aims to create a supportive workplace for employees with visible and invisible disabilities. By nurturing a culture of empathy and awareness, everyone can feel comfortable during their time at Pernod Ricard.
In a step towards building a more inclusive shop floor, and to uphold our commitment as a responsible employer, the ADPL plant in Kanpur, India, launched an initiative in 2024 to integrate specially-abled talent into its workforce.
Today, the plant proudly employs over 100 specially abled individuals, making inclusion a cornerstone of its operational excellence.
It’s all about ConviviABILITY
We empower employees to feel comfortable disclosing their disabilities to support them throughout their time at Pernod Ricard. ConviviABILITY aims to make disabled or differently abled employees feel more comfortable at work while also educating and raising awareness amongst coworkers by challenging stereotypes and creating a culture of empathy.
Let's talk about this ability
“As someone hard of hearing, my colleagues adapted by speaking clearly, facing me, and letting me choose where to sit in meetings. Microsoft Teams can add subtitles to video calls too if needed. Now, we’re all working more efficiently together!”
Francesco, our Marketing colleague at Headquarters

“By informing my colleagues about my diabetes, I was able to raise their awareness of the actions to take to help me incase of a hypoglycemic episode, which has also strengthened our bond.” Céline, our Operations colleague Martell Mumm Perrier-Jouët
Unlock this ability
“The flexibility to work remotely has allowed me to do my role while also managing my pain episodes in an environment that works best for me. Knowing that the company provides this is comforting, and enables me to show up at my best as an employee and teammate daily, for me it is invaluable.” Ben, our Sales colleague in North America
Embrace this ability
“Being open about my ADHD and dyslexia has transformed my work experience. When I shared this with my team, it led to better communication and understanding on all sides. Small adjustments in how we work together have made a big difference, and I’m grateful to be in an environment where different ways of thinking are valued and supported.” Siobhan, our Finance colleague at Headquarters
