DIVERSITY, EQUITY AND INCLUSION

ADVANCING ASSOCIATE DIVERSITY

We’re stepping up today to grow the talent of tomorrow.

We’re investing in partnerships to uniquely nurture careers. We’re cultivating a workplace that reflects the diversity of the local labor force. And we’re measuring our impact every step of the way.

It’s how we’re working to advance a strong culture of diverse backgrounds and experiences and meet our 2025 goal of gender balance (40–60% female representation of our salaried workers) in the U.S. and Canada.

REACHING THE TALENT OF TOMORROW

Representation matters. It’s how our business and our people flourish.

We’re working to recruit more diverse candidates, enhancing our hiring processes. And in the US, we’re teaming up with external partners – like historically Black colleges and Next Up – to remove systemic barriers for women and marginalized communities.

ENABLING ASSOCIATES TO THRIVE

We’re passionate about nurturing the new wave of leaders. Our ARGs, mentoring programs and partnerships help us get there.

Through our training and thought leadership programming, we’re providing skill-building and networking for our associates of color and women. It’s how we’re crafting development opportunities for the leaders of tomorrow.

INCREASING UNDERSTANDING THROUGH DATA

Every person is defined by different backgrounds and experiences. That’s why getting to know the converging identities of the people we’re hiring, promoting and growing is so important.

We’re embracing data through an intersectional lens – that means recognizing our people have a multitude of identities that matter and must be considered together. It’s how we can identify where we have more to do – so we can better support everyone to thrive.
