Diversity & Inclusion at GE

GE supports and embraces diversity in all forms. Our business portfolio is as diverse as our workforce and we believe that diversity of thought contributes to a more inclusive and innovative culture, aligned to our company beliefs.

With more than 300,000 employees and operations in over 170 countries, GE employees reflect both the local communities we serve and the people with whom we do business. This is true for our region where we cover Australia, New Zealand and Papua New Guinea. We see diversity and inclusiveness as an essential part of our productivity, creativity, innovation and competitive advantage.

We consider this culture to be among our most important innovations. The success of diversity at the company is a reflection of the integrity of our leadership, and our commitment to promoting the power of a vibrant and varied workforce.

Our diversity and inclusion objectives

Our approach to diversity will be based on the following objectives:

• Our employees – to continue to strive to ensure that our workforce is as diverse as the communities in which we operate, while always upholding the importance of merit.
• Our workplace – to create an inclusive culture that recognises employees’ unique needs, helps them reach their full potential, and nurtures their diverse talents.
• Our community – to strive for diversity in suppliers and partners, and engage with the communities in which we operate to support diversity.
