In 2021 we are launching EMBRACE, our most recent Employee Resource Group focused on diversity & inclusion at Avient. As a truly global company, understanding and valuing the many cultures and backgrounds of our associates is both exciting and inspiring. It also provides an excellent opportunity to utilize our global breadth to foster racial diversity within our company, particularly in the United States.
EMBRACE aims to enhance racially diverse talent at Avient. Increasing racial representation will further us along on our journey by allowing for more creativity, inclusivity, unique perspectives, and ultimately, better performance.
We look forward to growing this important group, leveraging the many benefits of diverse talent throughout our global organization!
“We look forward to expanding our racial representation by recruiting more diverse talent at Avient and ensuring our associates of different heritage feel understood, accepted and valued. We can’t wait to see what EMBRACE further contributes to our great culture!”
