At ESCO, we recognize the importance of promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion in the workplace. This is why we have a clear vision and set of goals that articulate our commitment to these values and align with our overall mission and values. 

• We understand the significance of having a comprehensive understanding of our current workforce demographics and tracking our progress towards our diversity goals. To achieve this, we implement strategies that attract and retain a diverse pool of applicants and ensure equitable hiring practices, while eliminating any biases from the hiring process.
• Supporting the career growth and development of employees from diverse backgrounds is a priority for us. To achieve this, we are committed to implementing programs and initiatives that offer mentorship and sponsorship opportunities.
• Creating an inclusive workplace culture and supporting a sense of belonging for all employees is crucial to us. We will be putting efforts into engaging with and retaining employees through regular feedback and engagement opportunities.
• We also acknowledge the importance of engaging with and supporting diverse communities and suppliers. This includes initiatives such as partnerships with community-based organizations and local schools, as well as setting goals for the percentage of business spend with diverse suppliers.
• Regular monitoring and reporting on our progress towards diversity goals is essential, and we believe that our diversity strategy should be integrated into our overall business strategy. The active participation and leadership of senior executives, as well as input from employees at all levels of the organization, is crucial for our success.
