Volvo prioritizes the safety and well-being of its employees and that’s why they’ve created a progressive and secure workplace. This safe environment is supplemented by events, projects, and products that support road safety.

Starting from its own company, Volvo focuses on hiring diversely and has set its target of having 35% of its leaders to be female by 2030. It also seeks to foster a company culture that’s free from discrimination and harassment.
Aside from these, Volvo knows that the constant shift of the world towards newer business models and technological advancements means that employees need to be constantly trained and upskilled.

Valuing Integrity
Integrity is a key principle that Volvo continues to adhere to as it grows. By building trust among its employees, stakeholders, and society, Volvo has established a zero-tolerance for corruption and bribery.
