Dear Team Member,

Congratulations! Tomorrow (Nov. 4), you will receive your AIP award by the same method you receive your pay – either direct deposit or check.

While we faced our challenges last fiscal year, overall, Sodexo turned in a successful performance and continued to grow. We brought in significant contracts and added to our portfolio with accounts from our newest family members—Circles Concierge, Comfort Keepers and Tutor.com to mention a few. We had a good revenue and margin story all because of your efforts and the collective efforts of our team.

Your award reflects your hard work to achieve financial, diversity inclusion and individual goals. Your award is based on:
  • A combination of achievement in three areas:
    • Diversity
    • Measured Performance Objectives (MPOs) and
    • Financial (the results you influence most directly —"your line of sight.")
  • A percentage of your fiscal year earnings.
    • The percentage received considers your salary grade and your achievement of the AIP objectives.
  • Funding, which is determined by the market segment or company profitability.
Next week, we will share with you details on how your award was calculated.

For more information on our Annual Incentive Plan (AIP), go to SodexoNet, keyword: AIP or the SGVestia website www.SGVestia.com/Sodexo, your results will be posted on Nov. 18. If you need assistance with your SGVestia ID or password, call 888 208 8216 or send an email to inquiries@sgvestia.com.

Sincerely,
George Chavel
