“We are extremely honored to once again be recognized for our continuous efforts in creating a culture where all employees experience a sense of belonging” said Camille Pierce, Senior Director of Inclusion and Diversity at Whirlpool Corporation. “We do this by unleashing the power of diversity to fuel innovation, ideas, and possibilities, which helps us better serve our consumers around the world.”
Whirlpool Corporation is regularly recognized as a leading company in efforts related to inclusion and diversity. In 2020, the company was named a Best Employer for Diversity, along with scoring a perfect 100 on the Corporate Equality Index for the 17th consecutive year.
The annual Diversity Best Practices Inclusion index is intended to help identify gaps in representation within the workplace and creates a road map to drive internal change. To compile the 2020 index, Diversity Best Practices gathered data provided by each organization and measured applicants in three key areas: best practices in the recruitment, retention and advancement of people from underrepresented groups—women, racial/ethnic minorities, people with disabilities, and LGBTQ people; inclusive corporate culture, including leadership accountability; and demographic diversity for women and racial/ethnic minorities.
