Acting for social and territorial cohesion: being close is important

A commitment to the environment is essential to our business. Having a social commitment for everyone is just as important. Recognised as a company with a mission, La Poste Group and all its entities, such as Colissimo, are committed to taking action and promoting social and territorial cohesion for all.

It is also on the basis of these values that we work to advance equality, dialogue and the professional development of our employees. We are bringing about positive changes in the world of work to make it a lever for development and employability for all.

As local players, La Poste and Colissimo pay particular attention to advancing equality. Since 2019, La Poste Group has been awarded the Diversity label for its major role in the recruitment and integration of young people into employment.
Thanks to our inclusive recruitment policy, more than 5,318 of our employees are disabled, representing 6.18% of employees recognised as BOE (Beneficiaires Obligation Emploi).

We help employees who are carers to reconcile their professional lives with their caring role, working actively on gender equality issues, with more than 7,397 postal workers receiving childcare assistance.

The well-being of our employees is at the heart of our business. This was highlighted by the Top Employeur organisation, which ranked La Poste Group among the companies with the best human resources practices. And, for the 5th year running, among the 5% of companies with the best index for professional equality between men and women.

More than 40.1% of our management positions are held by women, and we have measured an overall pay gap of 0.2% in favour of men for employees on permanent contracts.

Since 2019 and until 2023, Colissimo has been awarded the Diversity label by the Services-Courrier-Colis branch.

With its 34,000 points of contact in France and its 60,000 postmen and deliverymen present in people's homes every day, our Group benefits from its proximity and its capital of trust, making it a legitimate vector for social cohesion and regional development.
