We are committed to building a diverse workforce and an inclusive workplace that values the unique perspective and contributions of all of our employees – a workplace where every employee can bring 100% of themselves to work every day.
Respecting and appreciating diversity of thought, experience and background helps us improve performance, understand our customers better, and recruit and retain top talent. As we become more inclusive, we are also becoming more innovative, increasing employee engagement and improving customer and shareholder value. Research shows that diverse and inclusive workplaces consistently outperform non-inclusive and non-diverse workplaces and tend to create more innovative solutions.
