Inclusion, Diversity, and Equity at Leggett & Platt
We promote a culture of inclusion, diversity, and equity where everyone is respected, valued, and has a variety of opportunities to contribute, grow, and advance. We are on a journey to make meaningful change in our company and the global communities in which we live, work, and play.
Our Approach
Our ID&E goals are intentionally designed to cultivate team environments that empower everyone to realize their full potential. The more we embrace the unique backgrounds and perspectives each of us brings, the more connected, collaborative, and innovative we are. Put simply, we aspire to be a great place to work, where each person matters.
Our Commitment
We are committed to fostering a culture that thrives on unique perspectives and nurtures a welcoming environment where all voices are heard and valued. We champion engaging diverse employees, their ideas, and experiences and ensuring equitable treatment and opportunities for learning, growth, and advancement.
Our Communities
We are creating an environment where every individual has a place to speak their mind, feel represented, and be a valued part of the team. Creating positive change is a journey we are on together, and we value our employees’ unique perspectives and champion a space for growth and advancement.
Our Impact
Creating meaningful change is something we strive for and embrace every day. We are on a journey to affect the communities in which we live, work, and play. To make a lasting impact, we continue to push our boundaries further, engage unique perspectives, and champion our essential and valuable differences to learn and thrive.
Learn About Our Inclusion In Action
As a mom and a team manager, it gives me so much hope for the future to see our company’s focus on building a structure that provides visibility and a voice and empowers all angles within our diverse employee base. Gaining employee engagement through our ID&E strategy will organically help bring all the talent and merit our partners possess to the surface and create a more even playing field for career growth opportunities.
Changing our company’s culture is a positive step toward changing culture globally in all realms. That is why it is so important for L&P to promote ID&E.
I’m passionate about bringing ERGs to L&P because they are one of the best ways to implement our ID&E values and goals. They give employees a voice, create a greater sense of belonging, and deepen everyone’s understanding of different cultures, peoples, and experiences.
It’s important to continue creating an environment of inclusivity where we can all thrive and grow. It makes for a better workplace and a better Leggett.
L&P benefits from the different perspectives that a diverse workforce brings. Encouraging, promoting, and supporting ID&E is essential to our growth as partners, especially at the production level. Without the input or ideas of our manufacturing employees, we would not be where we are today. ID&E is not a task with a completion date; rather, it is an attitude and approach to continuous improvement. I am excited to be a part of it.
