As diverse as the patients and communities we serve

Our purpose at Pfizer is clear: achieving breakthroughs that change patients’ lives.

We realize that means not just attracting the best and brightest talent. But also ensuring our colleagues can thrive in an environment and culture where we champion Diversity and Inclusion every day, around the world.

 

Equity runs through everything we do.

We want all patients to have equal access to healthcare, and accessible and affordable drugs. Within our business, we believe everyone deserves to be seen, heard and respected for who they are.

That’s why we focus and invest in making Pfizer an amazing workplace for all. Our Diversity & Inclusion Leads around the world partner with Business Leaders to make sure our approach and processes reflect our key values.

 

But this isn’t just about what we do as a business:

It’s about who we are. We want all our colleagues to develop, grow, and succeed. We commit to making that happen, and to sharing and celebrating our successes as we bring together people from all backgrounds, geographies and perspectives.

 

 

Opportunity Parity

Pfizer’s Opportunity Parity strategy represents our commitment to increase diversity. In 2019, we announced representation goals, by 2025, of 47% for women (globally) and 32% minorities (US) for Vice President (VP) roles and above.

• Representation of women at the VP level and above in 2020 was 38% globally (up 5% from 2019).
• Representation of minorities in the U.S. at the VP level and above in 2020 was 22% (up 2% from 2019).

 

All areas of our business groups are dedicated to advancing diversity, equity and inclusion. In Pfizer’s Global Supply organization, we have adapted enterprise-wide initiatives to drive diversity, equity and inclusion across our 40+ sites around the world.

ESG Report

Workplace diversity, equality and engagement are critical to unleashing the power of our people and empowering employees to realize their full potential. Therefore, our key performance indicators (KPIs) focus on employee engagement, global female and U.S. minority representation, and measures of pay equity and opportunity parity.
