Human Resources Philosophy

CARE's mission is to serve individuals and families in the poorest communities in the world. Drawing strength from our global diversity, resources and experience, we promote innovative solutions and are advocates for global responsibility. Guided by the aspirations of local communities, we pursue our mission with both excellence and compassion because the people we serve deserve nothing less.

CARE International accomplishes its mission through the combined efforts of its most important asset, staff, whose work is guided by CARE's program principles: promote empowerment, work in partnership with others, ensure accountability, address discrimination, promote non-violent resolution of conflicts and seek sustainable results. Our staff are employed by various national members and country offices within CARE International.

Recognizing that our employees are our most important assets and that each employing CARE office strives to be an employer of choice, within their local context and market, ensures that we attract and retain the best staff.

CARE commits that in its dealings with staff it will deal fairly, openly and transparently. CARE is committed to respecting the interests of those from different cultural backgrounds and with different belief systems and worldviews.

• Treating staff consistently with regard to the employing CARE office's policies and procedures

Each employee has a vital role to play in meeting the needs of the people we serve and there must be mutual commitment between staff and the organization. Each employee holds himself or herself accountable to enact behaviors consistent with CARE International's vision, mission and program principles by committing to:

• Setting high standards of performance for self and others
