Diversity

At SICPA, we believe that diversity and inclusion are essential components of our success. 

 

Our team is made up of individuals from diverse cultures and backgrounds, who bring a wealth of perspectives and experiences to the table. By embracing diversity, we are able to better understand and serve our clients, and find new and innovative solutions to the challenges we face. 

 

With 3000 staff of over 80 nationalities based in 35 countries and more than 70 different professions, SICPA offers a unique work environment.

 

 

Empowering women in STEM

 

SICPA is committed to building a more gender balanced workforce and supports different projects and associations such as Girls in Tech (Switzerland), Women in Cyber (Switzerland) and Women in Tech (Global). These associations provide training and resources, the possibility to network and exchange to encourage women to pursue careers in STEM.  

 

 

Gender equality and Equal pay

 

SICPA is an equal employment opportunity company and as such does not tolerate discrimination or bias made to a candidate’s origin, nationality, religion, race, gender, physical or mental ability, sexual orientation or age. 

 

Moreover, our company is deeply committed to a fair and equitable compensation strategy for every employee. In 2021, SICPA in Switzerland successfully completed the analysis and subsequent audit on equal pay, under the new provisions of the Swiss law on equality between men and women, qualifying it as an “Equal Pay” employer. 

 

In addition, SICPA Chile, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Spain and Switzerland participate to the United Nations Global Compact initiatives, such as the Women's Empowerment Principles (WEPs) and the Target Gender Equality acceleration program. These offer tools and guidance to advance gender equality and women’s empowerment in the workplace, marketplace and community.  

 

Next to purely gender pay gap, SICPA has launched various programmes aimed at providing equal opportunities for career advancement and skill development.

 

SICPA's commitment to equal pay and its multifaceted approach, ranging from fair pay structures to enabling equal opportunities, showcase the company's dedication to eradicating gender pay disparities. Equal pay and gender equality transcends mere numerical data; it is deeply rooted in our ethical values. Together, in Switzerland and internationally, we are working to build an organisation that prioritises fairness and inclusiveness at every level.

Vanessa Rochat, HR Operations Specialist, Switzerland

During my apprenticeship program at SICPA, I was able to have a general overview of how a company functions, looking at the relationships between each department and their overall importance. And as an apprentice, I have had the opportunity to learn and work in many of these departments. This diversity allows us to affirm our professional preferences in a trustworthy environment where we are not hesitant to ask questions.

Christian Tadeu Pereira, Assistant Accountant, Switzerland

The varieties of different tasks, interactions with colleagues and learning on two very distinct sites, such as Prilly and Chavornay, have been the strengths of my apprenticeship program. I am constantly adapting to several departments simultaneously, resolving various problems that arise on a day-to-day basis. As a result, I was able to adapt an adequate use of professional language in both English and French, manage stress and the ability to manage my work independently...
