Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
Franklin Electric is committed to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI). We believe that everyone deserves to be treated fairly and respectfully, and that our diversity of thought, culture and experience makes us a stronger company. Our commitment to DEI goes beyond words; it is a part of our company culture and is reflected in our actions.
Recruiting, Developing and Promoting a Diverse Workforce
A diverse workforce and inclusive culture help drive our vision and deliver on our strategic objectives. Through development, training and hiring the best talent for the job, we continue to build a team that provides varied perspective and creativity in discussion and decision-making.
We are proud of the diversity of our workforce and the inclusiveness of our culture, but recognize that we can improve the quality of our employment offerings and the availability of opportunities for all of our employees. Our current workforce makeup is described on the next page, and for the first time, we are pleased to increase transparency to our shareholders and other stakeholders by making public EEO-1 data about U S employees. The EEO-1 data presented on the next page is used to review the breakdown of racial and gender data across all levels of our U S organization in order to internally measure and report our progress against our DEI goals.
