This pledge underscores our ongoing commitment to women’s equality in the workplace. Our corporate goal is to have an equal workforce, 50%/50% by 2025. Today, women comprise 23 percent of our workforce. In addition, we pledge to put aggressive hiring and development strategies in place to increase the number of women and minority appointments in our workforce, at all levels. We will close any gaps identified and we pledge to keep them closed by conducting annual equity reviews, and sharing the results at the senior most level in our organization. We pledge to expand our review process around pay equity to ensure that no unfair pay gaps exist within our organization and that all employees, regardless of gender, race, ethnicity, etc., are paid equitably for the work they do. We fundamentally believe that people doing the same job should be treated equitably. We are proud of the work environment we’ve created to drive equality for all of our employees. Progressiveness, and advocating for change, underpins our culture and makes up our brand DNA. This unrelenting commitment to innovate also motivates us to stand for those things that truly matter.
