Our employee wellbeing
A global Bupa family
We want Bupa to be a place where people love to work and make a real difference for our customers. That’s why we encourage everyone to be themselves, and support people to be their best.
Our global Smile programme helps people to be healthier and happier, while career development opportunities and reward and recognition programmes make for fulfilling careers at Bupa. We’re proud of our open, authentic and inclusive culture made up of 80,000 people around the world.
Healthy and happy
Smile, our global health and wellbeing programme, helps Bupa people bring the very best of themselves to the workplace – and to feel great generally. We offer a range of support to help people develop healthier bodies and minds and to build healthier workplaces and cultures.
Smile activities and benefits are tailored across our global business but a common element is our bespoke Performance Energy programme. This resilience-building approach helps people maintain optimum energy levels so they can manage the everyday pressures of work and life. Watch the video or read our Little Book of Energy to find out more.
We celebrate diversity
Being a place where people love to work is one of the five pillars of our Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability strategy. Letting people be themselves and valuing their uniqueness brings huge benefits to Bupa, and our customers. We promote an inclusive and diverse culture and we have a strong, independent and confidential Speak Up process in place to protect our people and our Bupa values.
Rewarding great work
Our global Bupa Awards recognition programme surfaces the brightest and the best people and projects from across our business every year. From digital tools redefining the future of healthcare, to ‘Everyday Heroes’ going above and beyond for our customers, the Bupa Awards celebrate all the incredible ways we are fulfilling our purpose of helping people live longer, healthier, happier lives.
Fulfilling careers
As a service business, everything we do for customers is delivered through our people. We hire great people with the right knowledge, qualifications, skills and experience – and we support them to keep learning and developing throughout their time with us.
Our commitment to the highest professional standards is captured in the Bupa Code and we use our People Pulse survey to listen to our people and act on the things that matter most to them. Find out more about working at Bupa.
Connecting as one Bupa
We employ around 80,000 people around the world, and once a year we take time to thank each other and celebrate as a global population. Bupa Week comes to life through social media-inspired digital sharing and local events and activities across our locations. It gives people a chance to connect across borders, business lines and cultures – all in the spirit of our Bupa values.
