This is the fourth time in a row that we have received recognition as a top employer in Europe. It is a huge source of pride for all of our hardworking teams. Today, a sincere and special thanks goes out to them for their continued dedication and commitment \u2014 not only in Europe but also around the world. Great workplaces undoubtedly start with great people, and at Salesforce, we\u2019re lucky to have an abundance of them! I\u2019m constantly in awe at the fantastic talent of our team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking back over the last strange and testing few months, it\u2019s inspiring how our people have embraced the transformative shift in working practices with ease. This has given us all an opportunity to create an even better workplace that is more connected and productive, allowing for sustained innovation, workplace relationships, and talent development. It has been so great to see that time and time again, our values \u2014 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/eu\/company\/about-us\/\" target=\"_blank\" adhocenable=\"false\" rel=\"noopener\">Trust, Customer Success, Innovation, and Equality<\/a> \u2014 drive these changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, together, we\u2019re designing an even better workplace for the work-from-anywhere world. We want to build a workspace where <i>everyone \u2014 <\/i>regardless of location \u2014 can feel supported and connected. It\u2019s what we call \u201cSuccess From Anywhere\u201d. It equips our customers, employees, and stakeholders to connect, work, sell, market, and service from anywhere. But it\u2019s about more than that \u2014 it\u2019s also about how we inspire team spirit, employee engagement, and wellbeing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Success from Anywhere is just one of the many transparent and human-centred strategies we\u2019ve employed to maintain our great workplace status. Here are a few additional efforts that make Salesforce a great place to work for all of us in Europe and around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-focus-on-well-being\"><b>A focus on well-being<\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s no secret that the health and safety of our employees is our number one priority. Happy, healthy employees are engaged employees. And, as we continue to navigate the pandemic and complexities of the past year \u2014 including blurred professional and personal lives \u2014 a focus on employee wellbeing has never been more important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s simple: to continue to succeed and push the barriers of innovation, we need to take care of our employees. So we have made significant changes in our programs and policies, including the addition of \u201cWellbeing Days\u201d which are coordinated days that everyone takes off together. These days don\u2019t count toward regular PTO or sick time and give our people the opportunity to switch off, relax, and unwind while doing their favourite well-being activity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-giving-back-to-our-communities\"><b>Giving back to our communities<\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At Salesforce, we believe we can unlock individual and collective impact by supporting our employees to strengthen the communities they care about. Eligible employees have 56 hours of VTO per fiscal year. Many of our employees are drawn to our company because we are values-driven, believe the business of business is to improve the state of the world, and are global leaders in civic and community action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last year, we passed the 5-million-hours-volunteered mark, which is an unbelievable milestone. 12,000 individual Salesforce employees across Europe combined their time, talent, and resources to support their chosen causes and organisations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-driving-greater-equality\"><b>Driving greater equality<\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Last year we faced not only the global pandemic and the intersecting economic crisis, but in many countries, we also had a reckoning with long-standing racial inequalities. Equality is one of our core values. It\u2019s something we\u2019ve always prioritised in our efforts to create a workplace that reflects the diverse communities where we live and work. We want to create a space where everyone feels seen, heard, valued, and empowered to succeed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To move these efforts forward with urgency and care, last year we established our <a adhocenable=\"false\" href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/company\/equality\/racial-equality-justice-taskforce\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Racial Equality and Justice Task Force<\/a><i>. <\/i>We brought employees from every part of the business and of every age, race, gender, and level of experience together to develop a plan of action. Together, we\u2019re working to drive racial equality in our workplace through new representation goals and programs focused on our Black, Indigenous, and Latinx communities. We are also working to close economic opportunity gaps through our supply chain and investments. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><b>Find out more about <a adhocenable=\"false\" href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/eu\/company\/careers\/europe\/?d=cta-loc-eu\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">life at Salesforce and join us<\/a>. <\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Salesforce has once again ranked as a best workplace in Europe: the fourth time that we have received recognition as a top employer here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2591,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"sf_justforyou_enable_alt":true,"optimizely_content_id":"413b2d95fa7f401f984b5bd697ccf7d6","post_meta_title":"","ai_synopsis":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"sf_topic":[103,79],"sf_content_type":[],"coauthors":[207],"class_list":["post-2589","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","sf_topic-corporate-culture","sf_topic-salesforce-culture"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.2 (Yoast SEO v27.2) -
