Glovo has made the purposeful decision to dedicate a significant amount of time to our employees' well-being, something that not many organizations do. However, we consider it our responsibility to ensure that all employees feel protected, respected, supported, and represented in order to provide them with the jobs of their lives.

At Glovo, our aim is to provide our employees with the jobs of their lives. It is therefore of importance to us that our employees are feeling well; mentally, physically, emotionally, and socially. On may 18th we celebrate Well-Feeling Day; we take a moment to reflect on all that we have been doing to work on our well-being, the importance of doing so, and the areas in which we can improve as individuals and as a company.
