Clarins signs the LGBTQIA+ Charter of Engagement: a commitment to inclusion

At Clarins, caring for people is at the heart of everything we do, whether it’s our customers, our partners, or our employees. On September 3rd, we proudly took another step in turning our values into action by officially signing the LGBTQIA+ Charter of Engagement of L’Autre Cercle at our headquarters in Paris. 

About L’Autre Cercle and the LGBQIAT+ Charter of Engagement 

L’Autre Cercle is a leading French association dedicated to promoting LGBTQIA+ inclusion in the workplace and fighting discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity. 

The LGBT+ Charter of Engagement is a voluntary commitment for companies and organizations to foster inclusive environments where all individuals, regardless of their sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression, are treated with respect and dignity. 

 By signing the charter, Clarins pledges to: 

  • Promote diversity and inclusion across all teams, believing that a variety of perspectives strengthens our culture and creativity. 
  • Ensure equality and respect throughout the employee journey, from recruitment to career development. 
  • Raise awareness and educate employees on LGBTQIA+ topics, nurturing empathy and understanding across the organization. 
  • Integrate inclusive practices into recruitment, onboarding, and professional growth opportunities. 

Created in 2013, the charter has been adopted by a wide range of organizations from various sectors, becoming a national benchmark for inclusion and equality in France. 

A milestone for inclusion at Clarins HQ 

The signing ceremony was attended by Anne Esling, Chief People & Culture Officer of Clarins Group, and Nicolas Prieur, General Manager of Clarins France, who represented Clarins as official signatories. Their participation underscores the leadership’s commitment to fostering an inclusive and supportive workplace for all. 

More than a signature: a living commitment 

This milestone is not just a signature, it’s a tangible extension of Clarins’ philosophy of care, which goes beyond our products to embrace our people. Together, we are building a culture that celebrates diversity, equality, and empowers everyone to thrive every day.
