Inclusion and diversity

Embracing inclusion and diversity

Corbion believes that innovation, creativity, performance, and high quality are driven by diverse perspectives.

By establishing an inclusive and diverse culture, we feel better positioned to do the right things for current and future generations.

To better serve and understand our employees, customers, and communities, it is essential that we evolve to reflect and represent them to the best of our ability.

Diverse perspectives in common purpose have great potential to drive global innovation and business growth. To realize this, we must continue to attract, develop, grow, and retain diverse talent across the organization, by creating an inclusive place to work which inspires our employees to perform at their best every day.

At Corbion, we have established an Inclusion and Diversity policy.

Our definitions

Inclusion is a state of being valued, respected, and supported. It's about appreciating the needs of every individual and ensuring the right conditions exist for each person to achieve his or her full potential. Inclusion should be reflected in an organization's culture and practices, as well as in its programs and policies to support a diverse and inclusive workplace.

Diversity is anything that differentiates groups and people from one another. Differences include; ethnicity, gender, age, national origin, personality, physical ability, sexual orientation, education, religion, and other dimensions.

Our inclusion and diversity program focuses on the following themes:

• Establish a more diverse workforce by becoming an 'employer of choice'

• Attract, retain, and promote highly talented and diverse employees across all levels

• Improve our customer and stakeholder relationships

• Reflect and respond to changing customer and stakeholder developments

• Enhance performance

• Create well rounded and an increased range of leadership styles across the business
