Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion In and Beyond the Workplace
Our vision is to reflect the diversity of our communities, unleash the full potential of our employees, and transform healthcare to be more inclusive and equitable. Because when we bring the best of our best selves every day, we can work miracles.
Employee Resource Groups (ERGs): valued partners in driving culture change.
Our employee groups turn local insights into action for diversity, equity, and inclusion. ERGs include Gender+, Generations+, Pride+, Ability+, and Culture and Origins+.
Each has a leader to help countries share ideas and best practices.
Our thriving ERG movement is helping us meet our DE&I goals. Through listening, collaboration and partnership we're encouraing greater diversity, inclusivity and equity across the community. We are 'All In'.

Allyship
Anyone can advocate for justice for all people, support diversity, equity and inclusion by being an ally.
Allyship is about taking personal accountability, taking action, and working alongside under-represented communities to help achieve clear shared outcomes of equity, inclusion and justice for all people.
Did you know?
1 billion
people in the world have a disability. They are the largest minority group.(1)
50%
of the global population is ageist and 100% of humans will be one day facing ageism if we don’t act now.(2)
Only around 40%
of LGBTQ+ employees are fully open about their gender identity/expression or sexual orientation at work.(3)
Are you All In?
Together with our Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) we co-created an Allyship guide to help people learn how to be more inclusive to different communities. The aim of each chapter is to promote better understanding of each community with some Do’s and Don’ts.
