More than 5,000 people work for Starbucks in the UK, (over 100,000 people world-wide) and these people – whom we call “partners” – have been instrumental in our success.

And because we owe so much of our success to their passion and dedication, we make it a priority to show how much we appreciate, value and respect them.

In fact, the first two guiding principles in our Mission Statement speak to our commitment to partners.

• Provide a great work environment and treat each other with respect and dignity.
• Embrace diversity as an essential component of the way we do business.
