Aramark has announced this year’s Hispanic Heritage Month (HHM) 30/30 honourees for their impactful contributions amid Covid-19. The 30 honourees are employees that “have gone above and beyond in response to the pandemic”, according to the American food service, facilities and uniform services provider.
These team members are also being recognised for their “commitment to fostering a diverse and inclusive work environment that encourages workforce engagement and creates memorable consumer experiences”, confirmed the company. The 30 employees will be celebrated during each of the 30 days of Hispanic Heritage Month.
“These honourees embody the spirit and mission of Impacto. Their contributions to Aramark’s success have been invaluable, and they continue to have impact during these challenging times,” noted Ash Hanson, Chief Diversity & Sustainability Officer of Aramark. “We thank them for their commitment and congratulate them on this recognition.”

The 2020 HHM 30/30 honourees are being recognised by Aramark’s Impacto employee resource group, whose mission is to provide impactful contributions to the business that builds a multicultural workforce, an inclusive workplace and awareness of Hispanic marketplace insights to support growth and consumer engagement.
