Valuing people

We employ around 100,000 people in over 100 countries. Getting the best from our people is vital to the success of our business and a key source of competitive advantage.

We want the best people in the world to work for us. We aim to recruit, retain and motivate them by offering competitive reward packages and by helping employees achieve their potential through training, development and a supportive work environment.

We:

  • Expect our employees to work according to the principles set out in our GSK Spirit. Integrity is critical in everything we do.
  • Employ a diverse workforce with a wide range of knowledge, perspectives and experiences. We are committed to equal opportunity and fair treatment of all employees.
  • Appraise and reward individual performance and give employees an opportunity to share in the company's financial success.
  • Offer development and training opportunities for all.
  • Ensure good two-way communication keeps everyone at GSK up-to-date and involved with company activities. Employee forums and surveys enable employees to share their ideas and give feedback.
  • Work to improve employee health and well-being and minimise the risk of illness or injury.
