  • #9 for Top Companies for Supplier Diversity
  • #7 for Top Companies for Executive Women
  • #20 for Top Companies for Executive Diversity Councils

"The more we grow and expand globally, the more important it is that we attract and develop employees from around the world, who have the knowledge and skills to work effectively in the markets in which we do business,” Kelley Bertoux Creveling, Executive Director – Global Diversity and Right Environment, says. “We’re at our best when we fully include those unique perspectives, experiences and languages – truly leveraging the power of diversity and inclusion."

The DiversityInc Top 50 list, issued yearly since 2001, recognises the top US companies in terms of diversity and inclusion management. These companies excel in such areas as hiring, retaining and promoting women, minorities, people with disabilities, LGBT, and veterans. The DiversityInc Top 50 ranking is based on empirical data obtained through organisations that fill out a survey.
