Inclusion & Diversity
Creating an environment where everyone can thrive.
Inclusion & Diversity is a core value at Whirlpool Corporation because we know that drawing from diverse points of view improves our products, services, our teams, and our communities. We also recognize we are on an ongoing journey, and we are committed to bold goals and meaningful action to cultivate an even stronger inclusive and diverse workplace, as well as in the communities where we work and live. Inclusion creates a culture of belonging and diversity makes us better.
Our strength at Whirlpool Corporation is in our differences.
Our pursuit to improve life at home is the foundation of how we’ve approached social responsibility since the beginning: we invest in our people and the communities in which we operate.

Racial Equality Pledge
In 2020 Whirlpool announced its Racial Equality Pledge – a multi-year commitment to build and sustain representation at all levels within our company and take specific actions both within our company and in our community. The work on the pledge requires efforts from dozens of company volunteers. These volunteers are supporting different work streams focused on Inclusion and Diversity, Education, Housing, and Business and Community Support.
While our racial equality pledge has a U.S. focus, it is rooted in our global values and many of the actions are mirrored in other parts of the world.
For more information about how we are taking action to increase equality in our communities and equality for Black colleagues, visit our Racial Equality Pledge page and our latest Sustainability Report.
Our Commitment to Transparency
We continue to strive for a workforce as diverse as the customers we serve. Whirlpool Corporation is fully committed to transparency, measuring how we are doing, and understanding what it will take to improve.
