Aldi staff trained to recognise symbol so they can help certain customers

Aldi is supporting the Hidden Disabilities Sunflower to help provide a better shopping experience for those with non-visible disabilities and create a more inclusive workplace for colleagues. Colleagues at Aldi’s more than 970 stores have undergone training around hidden disabilities and the Sunflower symbol, so they can offer additional assistance to customers who may require it.

Shoppers with hidden disabilities - such as autism, chronic pain, mental health conditions and mobility or speech impairments - will also be able to use the Hidden Disabilities Sunflower store finder to locate their nearest Aldi store.

Aldi colleagues across all other areas of the business have also completed the training - and have the option to wear a Sunflower badge to signal to others that they too may need extra support.
