Our Commitment
We know that diverse teams drive better business outcomes and that standing together as one and having diverse knowledge and experience in our global teams allows us to collaborate with strength.
Our people shape Hillenbrand’s success – they are the designers, engineers, manufacturers, makers, and shapers that bring our products and brands to life. Every day, we unite to be our best to serve our customers, associates, shareholders, and communities by incorporating one another’s individuality and ideas.
Our DEI initiatives are overseen by our DEI Steering Committee, which is comprised of key executives who approve the strategic direction of our DEI programs. The Inclusion at Hillenbrand Council (IHI) is a cross-functional, diverse team of associates, who consult on DEI programs and develop and drive DEI actions across our company.
Engaging Our Workforce
We all have a role in building a community where everyone belongs. By listening and acting with respect, embracing our individuality, and trusting in each other’s strengths, we will stand out as one by standing together.
To further embed DEI into our organization, we are focused on key areas to drive impact.
