In Hong Kong, 7-Eleven works closely with various NGOs to recruit and support team members with special needs.

Since 1995, we have supported people with intellectual impairments and those who are recovering from mental illness, enabling them to connect with the community in an inclusive workplace.

Since 2022, we have recruited 48 team members for 7-Eleven stores by partnering with NGOs such as Rehabilitation Alliance Hong Kong, Youth Outreach, Caritas, Hong Chi Association, Baptist Oi Kwan Social Service, New Life Psychiatric Rehabilitation, Shine Skills Centre and MINDSET. The team members are assigned front-line roles in stores with simple responsibilities including shelf cleaning, stock replenishment and date code checking.

Currently, 27 team members recruited from designated NGOs are working in our Combined Distribution Centre, including three team members who joined us since 2013.

“I enjoy working here as this place brings me a great sense of belonging and self-confidence after I have successfully completed a task my supervisor assigned.” Ho Tsz Pang, 7-Eleven Hong Kong team member in a Shau Kei Wan store.
