Goals for Global Female and U.S. Minority Representation
In October 2020, Air Products set a goal to achieve at least 28% female representation in professional and managerial roles globally and at least 20% minority representation in that same population in the U.S. by fiscal 2025. These goals reflect increases from 25% and 17% representation (2020 baseline), respectively.
Having reached our objective for U.S. minority representation in 2021, Air Products set a new, ambitious goal to achieve 30 percent U.S. minority representation in the targeted roles by 2025.
Air Products is committed to building a strong, inclusive culture where all employees know they belong and matter, and we will continue to report progress against these goals.
Raising the Bar for Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging
Our higher purpose goes beyond just delivering superior financial performance. Our higher purpose includes bringing people from all walks of life together to collaborate and innovate solutions to the world’s most significant energy and environmental sustainability challenges.
To support our goal of being the most diverse industrial gas company in the world, Air Products is taking a measurable, transparent step to further increase the number of females and U.S. minorities in professional and managerial roles. By 2025, we aim to achieve at least 28 percent female representation in these roles globally, and 30 percent minority representation in these roles in the U.S.
By being transparent about Air Products’ goals and our progress against them, we can visibly demonstrate our genuine commitment to diversity, inclusion and belonging, and bring everyone along on the journey with us.
