We recognize the benefits that inclusion brings to our organization, including delivering better business outcomes. Our talented people leverage their backgrounds across a myriad of experience and skills toward a common goal: meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to do the same. This spirit of inclusive collaboration can be felt throughout Avient. It drives the innovation that earns us leadership positions in the markets we serve and underpins the high level of respect we show each other every day.
We leverage Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) to help educate and inspire our global workforce and fortify strong business practices. Other initiatives, including Mentoring at Avient and campus partnerships, are vital for progress in our inclusion journey. We require equality of opportunity for all qualified individuals in accordance with applicable laws.
Decisions on hiring, promotion, development, compensation or advancement are based solely on a person’s qualifications, abilities, experience and performance, except where local law requires us to take specific action. More detail about Avient’s workforce demographics can be found in the appendix.
As a world-class company committed to our employees, Avient has created a strong portfolio of Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) as highlighted below. They all serve as a vital force in fostering inclusion, connection, and education throughout the company. With chapters spanning the globe, these ERGs create welcoming spaces for all employees to engage, share experiences, and celebrate Avient’s talented workforce. By hosting events, discussions, and learning opportunities, our ERGs empower all individuals to contribute to a more inclusive workplace culture.
