A Better World
As a healthcare provider, we know there's an inextricable link between the health of the planet and the health of people. Bupa has made climate action a priority, and that's why we follow a sustainability strategy focused on building a healthy future.
We will do this through three missions:
1. Reducing the impact of healthcare on the environment.
2. Helping accelerate the adoption of sustainable healthcare that also keeps people healthy.
3. Helping regenerate the health of our planet in ways that makes people healthier too.
Giving back matters
iving back is what gives us purpose, and as a healthcare service, we have a duty of care to everyone in our local community.
The Bupa Foundation is a charity, funded entirely by Bupa to help create healthier communities, by running and helping fund practical projects that improve both people and planet health.
Since 2015 the Bupa Foundation has given over £6 million in grants to more than 400 organisations across the UK to improve health and the environment.
Everyone's Welcome
At Bupa we celebrate diversity, welcoming everyone from all backgrounds. We embrace our differences so we can bring our true selves to work.
Having a diverse workforce is a key strength of the Bupa culture, and we understand the importance of making sure our workforce fully represents the communities in which we operate and the customers we serve, across the globe.
We want people to feel comfortable and free to bring their whole self to work every day – and that’s why we launched our ‘Be You’ network.
