We think of our organization as a large (and stylish) family.

At the core of it all, our approach is shaped by a strong respect for each individual. This applies to every aspect of the employment – from fair wages, working hours and freedom of association, to equal opportunities for growth and development within the company. Every H&M employee in the world receives fair employment, even in countries whose laws and regulations fall short of our own standards.

We see diversity and inclusion as central to our organization. This means that we stand up against discrimination and harassment wherever we operate.

At H&M, we endorse the “open door principle,” which gives every employee the right to discuss issues that matter to them directly with their leaders. Our employees also have the right to collective bargaining. We constantly strive for good relations with employees as well as employee associations and trade unions.

H&M is an equal opportunity employer that does not tolerate discrimination in the workplace.
