Global Commitment, Local Focus
Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Belonging
At ManpowerGroup, we believe in human potential and we advocate acceptance, respect and inclusion. We are committed to do all we can to fight racism and to strengthen diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging within our company, and in the communities in which we live and operate. We also know, from our vast experience in labor markets across the world, that we must engage and include all available talent and ignite human potential to sustainably grow prosperity around the world. It is the right thing to do, and it is what we must do to prosper.
Our commitment to diversity and inclusion is driven from the top by our CEO, and our leaders are held accountable to nurture workplace cultures where people from all backgrounds feel welcome and valued. We focus on creating a culture of conscious inclusion in our own organization, and with our client and community partners we develop and support programs that upskill underrepresented and underserved populations for meaningful and sustainable work.

Globally, we are committed to gender parity as a first, shared diversity and inclusion priority in all our countries. Following gender, our key markets also prioritize a second diversity focus and goals relevant to each local labor market. These focus areas include addressing the representation of ethnic and racial minorities, people with disabilities, refugees and immigrants, generational diversity and socio-economically disadvantaged populations. Progress against diversity goals are reported annually to the Global Diversity Officer and the Board of Directors.

We continue to make progress in building a strong pipeline of diverse leaders and providing opportunities to diverse candidates. We are consistently recognized as a best place to work for women, LGBTQ equality and disability inclusion and our employees rate us highly on Diversity & Inclusion in our Annual People Survey. We are proud of what we have accomplished, but know that we still have a long way to go to make our communities and workplaces more equitable and inclusive. As employers, we should all be asking ourselves: what more can we do to make sure meaningful jobs, competitive wages, equitable promotions and wider opportunities are available to all? That’s what we do.
