SOCIAL PERFORMANCE
EMPLOYMENT
Our responsibility for Human Resources (HR) management is largely delegated to the Business Units, while there is a Group HR Department, it largely focuses on policy development, and routinely collects only headline data in relation to employment grades and numbers.
All other data is managed locally, thus not all business units collect or analyse identical indicators/data of this type.
The employment breakdown by region is described in the Tables following. In addition to direct employment, the Group also contributes to a significant level of indirect job creation through its retailers and suppliers.

TABLE 19: INDIRECT EMPLOYMENT FIGURES BY BUSINESS UNIT
While there are differing employment conditions across the countries and regions in which we operate, our remuneration rates for employees, at all levels, are above average for our sector. We regularly monitor and evaluate, through management controls, that our pay-rates are meeting legal requirements and market expectations in all of our business units.
