    Our priority: contribute to a more inclusive world

    Vivendi’s businesses are made of passion, creativity and talent. Diversity, equity and inclusion are at the heart of their identity and are among the major commitments of the Group.

    Vivendi places individual skills at the heart of collective performance. Making its businesses more inclusive is a long-standing commitment of the Group, both internally and externally, notably through the support provided by Vivendi Create Joy to organizations working to increase access to the creative professions.

      Encouraging responsible content

      Fully aware of its influence, Vivendi ensures that the content it produces and distributes worldwide respects the regulations and ethical rules in force in its various sectors of activity. The group also ensures that this content is not harmful to its audiences, particularly the most vulnerable.

      • Eliminating discrimation

      Eliminating all forms of discrimination is one of the priorities targeted by the diversity, equality and inclusion programs implemented by the group’s businesses. The group is committed to providing equal opportunities for everyone in recruitment, mobility, promotion, training and compensation.
      To create an environment aligned with their culture, values and challenges, all group companies are committed to promoting diversity within their organization and actively pursue a policy of equal opportunity and equality of treatment for everyone.

      Vivendi SE’s occupational gender equality index stood at 89 out of 100 points for 2022.

      • Employees with disabilities

      Integrating persons with disabilities (whether physical or mental) and combating discrimination against them are important principles within the Group. All business units have committed to these principles by implementing a responsible and sustainable policy, including awareness campaigns for employees and managers, as well as by partnering with non-profit organizations to foster the employment and integration of persons with disabilities.

      Nurturing talent

      Vivendi firmly believes that its greatest strength is a direct result of the dedication of the women and men it employs and that each person’s talent contributes to its success. Therefore, the Group strives to offer all employees experiences, career paths and growth opportunities that are in line with their aspirations, with the aim of encouraging sharing, agility and cross-functionality, thus providing opportunities for expression and creativity.

      To this end, the HR teams at Vivendi and all its business units are implementing various actions to identify and attract talented people and to develop and retain them.

      Fostering social dialog

      Vivendi is committed to fostering continuous, constructive dialog with employees and their representatives by promoting exchange and consultation at all levels, particularly in relation to working conditions and organizational changes.

      Vivendi’s Works Council is a labor-dialogue body whose role is essentially to provide financial information, and whose members are kept informed on issues relating to the Group’s strategy and its development concerning economic, financial and social matters.

      The European Company Committee (ECC) is a supranational body composed of 30 members representing 25 countries of the European Economic Area (EEA).  It provides a forum for enriching social dialog at European level and covers all employees in Europe, including the United Kingdom after Brexit.

      Supporting employee engagement

      Taking better account of societal issues and having a real impact on the world around us consists in particular of making the group’s employees committed and civic-minded players.

      Overall, in 2022, 1,945 employees were involved in pro bono or skills sponsorship.

      • Since 2018, Vivendi has partnered with the PAQTE (Neighborhood Pact for All Businesses) project and opened its doors to several middle-school students from disadvantaged neighborhoods so they could observe the work environment.
