Awarded by the Top Employers Institute, the certification recognizes the excellence of Servier’s HR practices and contributes to strengthening its employer brand and reputation among employees and candidates.
“Being certified Top Employer Europe 2022 for the second consecutive year is a tangible acknowledgement of the high standard of our HR practices, which support our talent attraction and retention policies. It is a distinction that we are proud of, especially given the sanitary context where the working conditions remain challenging. We are thus encouraged to maintain this dynamic of continuous improvement and a close relationship with employees," says Nicolas Bouts, Executive Vice President of Human Resources for the Servier Group.
Employee engagement: an essential lever for the success of the Group's transformation

Servier also deployed digital solutions to further improve the work environment and respond to the new hybrid working methods.
Finally, at the Group level, the Servier Leadership Model based on the company's values was deployed to all 21,800 employees in 2021 giving each employee the means to commit to building the future of the company together.
