Quality of life  

We care about our associates and their relatives, and want to improve the quality of their lives. Hence, we’ve created committees that listen to their concerns and needs.  Thanks to the help of these committees we now have action plans to help associates balance their personal and professional lives.

Our relocation initiative, for example, has made a significant impact on the lives of many associates. The initiative offers the possibility of relocating associates closer to the unit, distribution center, or office where they work, anywhere in Mexico. 
Throughout 2007, 4,569 associates were transferred to units nearby their homes, saving time and money, and directly improving their quality of life.
