Equitable Representation

DIVERSITY & INCLUSION

A Workplace Where You Belong

We are committed to having the most diverse workplace in our industry. Equity sets the tone for all that we do in real, tangible ways; how we recruit, hire, train, transfer, promote, and compensate our employees.

CREATING AN EQUITABLE WORKPLACE

We believe in creating a diverse and equitable inclusive workforce which reflects the markets we serve. We operate a fair system for job and promotion opportunities, compensation and benefits, and provide equitable flexible working and personal development for all employees.

We support our commitment to building a diverse and inclusive workplace that provides opportunities for everyone to reach their full potential by:

Monitoring pay, bonus, career progression within our workforce

Removing potential barriers preventing women, racial minorities, and people with disabilities from progressing to the top of their careers

Refreshing our recruitment processes to ensure they are inclusive and attract applications from underrepresented groups.

Empowering our leaders to own and drive inclusion within their teams

A DIVERSE WORKFORCE

Our Global Equity Policy and Principles of Equal Pay for Equivalent Work hold ourselves accountable to ensure we have a diverse workforce.
