Global Inclusion & Diversity 

We view diversity in the broadest sense - including age, ethnicity, race, culture, gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, abilities and disabilities, religion, socioeconomic background, veteran status, thinking styles, and life experiences, among other differences.

Through a culture of inclusion, we create an agile and responsive work environment where the diverse experiences and perspectives of all our employees help to drive innovation and transformative business results.

Our 2021 Global Inclusion & Diversity report demonstrates how leading with our Value of Inclusion drives equitable advancement and outcomes for our patients and communities, our colleagues, and our business and industry.
