Enable our employees to realize their full potential, as part of one winning team

Our employees are our main asset and we strive continuously to develop our corporate culture, expertise and leadership to create the best possible conditions for a successful Essity. We offer career opportunities in a leading global hygiene and health company that is breaking barriers to well-being in the world.

Health and safety

The health and safety of our employees is a top priority and our aim is for zero workplace accidents. Managers, employees and external partners receive training on a regular basis and all Essity facilities have plans in place to improve safety.

Continuous progress

Essity’s success is determined by competent, dedicated and motivated employees who work together to achieve results. We strive to offer continuous learning and that employees take responsibility to pursue their own development. Learning at Essity takes place as a combination of new challenges, knowledge sharing and training programs.

Winning corporate culture

Essity’s corporate culture is based on our “Beliefs & Behaviors”: we are committed, we care, we collaborate, and we have courage. These express what is required of us all in order to develop Essity and are regularly followed up in employee surveys. Our “Beliefs & Behaviors” are supplemented by Essity’s Code of Conduct. Employees receive training in the Code on how we conduct our business in a responsible manner, which benefits the company, society and the environment. Essity was named as Sweden’s most attractive employer in 2019 by the recruitment and staffing agency Randstad. The award is a result of focused and global work involving corporate culture, leadership and competency issues.
