Royal Philips (NYSE: PHG, AEX: PHIA), a global leader in health
technology, today announced that the company earned a spot on
Forbes’ 2023 “America’s Best Employers for Diversity” list. This is
the fourth time that Philips has appeared in the ranking, which is
limited to 500 organizations across the country and just 13 in the
Health Care Equipment & Services category.
Philips integrates inclusion, belonging, equity and wellbeing
into every aspect of the employee experience, starting when
prospective candidates are first considering joining the company.
Philips has taken strides to develop its diverse talent and
increase representation in all parts of the company with an eye
toward gender, race and ethnicity. The company supports 12 growing
volunteer-led employee resource groups globally, with 10,000+
members and 14 executive sponsors, has begun successful mentoring
programs, and nearly doubled its number of Black employees in
company leadership roles. From learning campaigns aimed at
mindfulness to workshops on topics like mitigating bias, Philips
follows its core principles in hiring diverse employees and making
sure they feel valued and have opportunities to advance: Listening
before acting, focus on movement, inclusion as actionable, walking
the talk, and embracing equity.
“Our focus is to create a workplace where our employees
individual needs are recognized, where their voices are heard,
their lived experiences are valued, and an environment where they
can be themselves,” said Sonam Lalwani, Head of Diversity,
Inclusion and Wellbeing, Philips North America. “We are not only
committed to transformation, but lasting, sustainable change that
yields the result of a diverse workplace, inclusive and equitable
for all.”
The Best Employers for Diversity were selected based on survey
from approximately 45,000 U.S. employees working for companies with
a minimum of 1,000 employees. Participants rate their organizations
on criteria such as age, gender, ethnicity, disability and LGBTQ+
equality, as well as general diversity. Forbes also asked
respondents from underrepresented groups to rate businesses other
than their own.
