Diversity & Inclusion

Our D&I programme promotes a diverse, inclusive workplace, where different genders, ethnicities, nationalities, cultures, age, disabilities, sexual orientations and identities are present. All our employees are invited to contribute and participate in the various topics.

Intercultural environmentIntercultural environment

Our workforce is made up of over 60 nationalities, with teams based in offices throughout Europe. We know that the key to success is great cooperation between people with different ideas and abilities and we have introduced "Culture Days" to specifically strengthen our understanding for each other.

Women in the workforceWomen in the workforce

Women currently represent 49% of our workforce, in other words, there is more or less an equal balance between female and male employees at zooplus. We want to maintain an equal balance so we have launched recruitment campaigns explicitly targeted at women and we have an internal women's network.
