Since its founding, IBM has been the leader in corporate workforce diversity. Everyone at IBM is focused on diversity in their hiring efforts. We even employ specialists dedicated to recruiting women, minorities and people with disabilities.
IBM leaders, in every generation, have believed that an inclusive workplace is right for the company, no matter what the prevailing views of the day represented. That kind of leadership didn't just happen — it is a natural companion to our shared beliefs and values. Diversity and the concept of workforce inclusion are key factors in helping define how we do business.
"Diversity policies lie as close to IBM's core as they have throughout our heritage," says Sam Palmisano, IBM chairman and CEO. "Today we're building a workforce in keeping with the global, diverse marketplace, to better serve our customers and capture a greater share of the on demand opportunity."
