From support centers to restaurants, Yum! Brands has been fostering our people-first culture across the world for 25 years. In our latest Global Citizenship & Sustainability Report, you’ll find how we are addressing material issues to our business including Equity, Inclusion and Belonging, Talent Attraction, Engagement & Retention, and Human Rights & Labor Practices.
While we’re known for our food, everything that we do is made possible by our people. We’re building on our strengths and taking on new challenges by investing in strategic initiatives that unlock opportunity and create an inclusive culture for all talent to thrive at work and at home. That means investing in globally scalable development programs that franchisees can leverage to benefit system employees, with a focus on restaurant general managers (RGMs), so we can unlock growth for our 1,500 franchisees and make a difference in the world.
Yum! Brands’ social purpose is to unlock opportunity for our restaurant team members, franchisees and communities. We do this by providing employment and professional development opportunities that allow people to build rewarding careers; by investing in tools and resources to support our franchisees, particularly those from underrepresented backgrounds; and by making strategic investments in the thousands of communities that we operate in around the world.
