Our People

Africa	Eurasia	European Union	Latin America	North America	Pacific

We are a local business in communities around the world.

For the people of The Coca-Cola Company, work is more than a place to go every day. We believe work should be a place of exploration, discovery, creation and inspiration.

Every day, in the more than 200 countries where we do business, we strive to be a great place to work. Our goal is to inspire and motivate our people to continue to achieve extraordinary things so that they can take pride in their work and their Company. After all, our business ultimately depends on our people -- their combined talents, skills, knowledge, experience and passion make us who we are.

Our people, and those who do business with us around the world, know we are committed to earning their trust with a set of values that represent the highest standards of quality, integrity, excellence, compliance with the law, and respect for the unique customs and cultures in communities where we operate. Just as we remain committed to upholding basic human rights for the people of the world, we are also committed to fair and dignified treatment of all people who work for The Coca-Cola Company.

As of December 31, 2006, we employed approximately 90,500 people, 77,200 of whom were based outside the United States. Together with our bottling partners, our system employs hundreds of thousands of people around the world. Our people live and work in the markets we serve. They are neighbors, community leaders, business partners and friends.

Our commitment to our people is one of the key areas of focus in the Manifesto for Growth, our strategic road map for sustainable business growth. In addition, our Workplace Rights Policy and Human Rights Statement reflect our fundamental respect for our associates and our commitment to providing a rights-based working environment.
