Our People

At FEMSA, we are committed to being a high-performance company where talent, culture, well-being, and dignified work are the driving force and development of Our People.

Our operations adhere to a principle-based approach to doing business, which means operating in ways that go beyond basic responsibilities for safe and healthy working conditions, human and labor rights.

We invest resources and work to achieve the overall wellbeing of each collaborator, providing them with the training and tools they need to be successful in their work and in their personal lives, making them ambassadors of our values in their communities, thus multiplying the social value that we generate as FEMSA.

We seek to contribute to a cultural transformation that promotes human and labor rights, as well as inclusion and diversity. We do this by creating safe work environments, free of discrimination and harassment, where the well-being of the employee translates into happiness, job satisfaction, personal development and life in balance.
