There’s More Work to Do

The Principles We Practice

Diversity

Diversity is the range of human differences, including but not limited to race, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, social class, physical ability or attributes, religious or ethical values system, national origin, and political beliefs.

Equity

Equity is the fair and impartial treatment, access, opportunity, and advancement for all people. Equity in action is working to remove barriers that may impede the participation of individuals who have been underrepresented in our industry.

Inclusion

Inclusion is involvement and empowerment, where the inherent worth and dignity of all people are recognized. An inclusive company promotes and sustains a sense of belonging; it values and practices respect for the talents, beliefs, backgrounds, and ways of living of its people.
