Do Well., focuses our efforts to help people and our planet, as we serve our client partners, employees, shareholders and other stakeholders.”
With respect to people priorities, Aramark will focus on helping its employees, consumers, communities and all people in its supply chain to improve their well-being.

Disability:IN president & CEO Jill Houghton said: “As a top-scorer of the Disability Equality Index (DEI), Aramark has committed to learning and improving inclusion efforts, ultimately driving a culture of inclusion that extends beyond the US to their global operations, impacting thousands of people across the world. We proudly congratulate Aramark for advancing a welcoming workplace culture for people with disabilities.”
Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education (AASHE) executive director Meghan Fay Zahniser said: “It is great to see Armark putting equal emphasis on people and planet. We applaud them for working to reduce GHG emissions, with efforts that range from plant-based menu options to vehicle fleet efficiencies, and for recent announcements, like their support of Swipe Out Hunger and addressing food insecurity on campuses.”
Aramark’s environment priorities focus on several initiatives, such as managing food waste, reducing packaging waste and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions effectively including climate change.
It also plans to offer more vegan and vegetarian meals.
