We’ve experienced how diversity helps our businesses thrive and drives sustainability, and we know the value this depth of perspectives brings to our culture. Diversity drives our reputation as a great place to work, attracting talent to join a team where employees can grow and be productive, innovate, and make a meaningful difference to our organization. We rely on each other to bring our best, and trust each other to listen and learn.

Global Recognition

One way we honor our diverse team is through global celebration of events that recognize or commemorate diversity. Additionally, our regions and sites across the globe commemorate and celebrate diversity in ways particularly relevant to their local communities.

Regional DEI Councils

We respect and appreciate the diverse cultures, ways of working, and local expertise of our global team. Each of our four regions (North America; Latin America; Europe, Middle East, Africa; and Asia Pacific) is represented by a regional DEI Council that is led by an executive sponsor. These councils ensure that the DEI needs and concerns of the region are understood, acted upon, and shared with our global community.
