Healthy Lifestyles

Health and wellbeing continues to be a significant public issue and we want to play our part by helping those people that we interact with directly – the consumers who choose our drinks and our employees – to lead healthy, balanced lifestyles.

Consumers

Consumers are at the heart of our business. We recognise that we can play a role in addressing some of the health and wellbeing issues that face the nation. We therefore support them in leading healthy lifestyles by providing a wide variety of soft drinks to meet their needs, helping them make informed choices, marketing our drinks responsibly and promoting health, wellbeing and nutrition.

Working with partners

We can make a bigger difference to our focus areas by working with specialist organisations and industry bodies and our partners include:-

- MEND (Mind, Exercise, Nutrition, Do-it) – a UK wide programme advising families on healthy lifestyles

- Business4Life – a coalition of industry partners, supporting the Government’s Change4Life initiative

Employees

For us, employee wellbeing means motivated and engaged employees with a good work-life balance. Our people strategy focuses on leadership, performance, nurturing talent and embedding behaviours essential to personal and business success. The health and safety of our employees is also crucial and we have stretching annual improvement targets and supporting practices.

Employee wellbeing

Our policies and actions are designed to develop and support our employees, promoting flexibility for all, and recognising this is particularly important to those with parental and caring challenges.

We continue to build on our good health and safety record through extensive training and engagement of our employees and this has resulted in both a reduction of accidents and days lost.
