The human in center
We take care of our employees
By prioritizing education, we invest not only in the personal and professional development of our employees but also in the company’s future success and sustainability efforts.
Through systematic HSE (Health, Safety, and Environment) work, we ensure all employees have healthy and safe working conditions.
The plant-based meal
Part of our Planet Promise
One of the significant components in our carbon footprint is the CO2 emissions from food. Our food choices can have a substantial impact on the planet, which is why we support transitioning to more plant-based options in our cafeterias, aligning with the EAT-Lancet recommendations for a plant-forward diet.

Stop Food Waste Day: A global observance throughout Compass Group
We combat food waste every single day
Food waste is a major focus area within Compass Group. The production, transportation, storage of food, and food waste impact our environment. Utilizing 100% of the potential of raw materials reduces food waste and contributes to lowering the environmental burden, including CO2 emissions.
Circular transition
Development of reusable cup
A special reusable cup has been introduced at several of our educational institution customers. Here, students have the option to choose a washable reusable cup when purchasing to-go drinks.
The reusable cup costs 10 DKK, which students get back when they return it. Additionally, they save 2 DKK when they order coffee served in the reusable cup.
