For AccorHotels, diversity is a key component in driving performance and innovation, while fostering non-discrimination and equal opportunity across the organization. A structured framework created for our diversity commitments in 2008 is driving a variety of programs to support and demonstrate these commitments.
AccorHotels diversity policy is expressed in its International Diversity Charter
AccorHotels recognizes that every employee is different and that overall performance depends on the skills of each individual. This commitment to diversity is structured around formalized undertakings and priorities for 2015 in the following areas:
· diversity of origins;
· gender diversity and gender equality in the workplace;
· integration of people with disabilities;
· age diversity.
This commitment to supporting diversity and fighting discrimination is clearly defined in our International Diversity Charter, which was deployed in 2011 and translated into 13 languages.

Promoting gender diversity and equality
In 2015, the commitment of AccorHotels towards gender equality gets stronger thanks to Sebastien BAZIN signature to the Women’s Empowerment Principles. This program, an initiative of UN Women and the United Nations Global Compact, defines seven principles that foster the empowerment of women in the workplace, the marketplace and the community.
By adhering to these principles, AccorHotels is asserting its commitment to diversity and gender equality at an international level.
