As a global supply chain company with a distributed workforce model our interactions lead us to deal with many corners of the world on a daily basis. This business model has influenced our mindset from the very start. It is reflected in the way we plan, execute and work, as well as how and who we hire.
Our partners and associates come from a wide variety of backgrounds. We value and appreciate diversity and differences – it reflects who we are and operate as a business – and we want to make sure that everyone feels welcome and at home in our community. Most of all we want to build WFE Group as an environment where people love their work and show respect and empathy to those with whom we interact.
To us, diversity and inclusion means we welcome differences and regard them as a way to grow and learn together to forge a strong and supportive company culture. We are always open to other perspectives and learning from them. At WFE Group diversity includes, but is not limited to, differences in age, gender, race, sexual orientation, political and religious affiliation, socioeconomic background, cultural background, geographic location, physical disabilities and abilities. We see inclusion as the ongoing, conscious effort to celebrate difference and welcome people of differing backgrounds and life experiences, whether they’re current or prospective associates and partners.
We learn from our differences in so many ways by being introduced to new ways of thinking, better ways of doing things and uncovering needs, niches and opportunities we did not know existed. Diversity is not only something that we value, it is something that we thirst for, as it is one way to keep getting better.
We are also thrilled that today’s technologies enables us to work closely together and yet allow us to stay in our local communities. We believe it can help our partners live more holistic, sustainable and happier lives.
