Diversity & Inclusion at ITWCP

At ITW, we strive for everyone to reach their full potential and we value the unique and diverse perspectives that make all of us better together. We are committed to fostering an inclusive and diverse work environment where our colleagues feel comfortable bringing their unique backgrounds, skills, and experiences to the workplace and feel a sense of belonging.

At ITW Construction Products (UK/Nordics) we are committed to the ITW D&I framework which was established to drive progress in establishing ITW as a best-in-class employer with a global, diverse workforce and an inclusive workplace. We have a flourishing D&I committee with members from across our division, engaging with the business and driving initiatives on a range of topics from gender and racial equality to mental health awareness.

ITWCP DIVERSITY & INCLUSION FRAMEWORK

 
 

Our Employee Resource Groups play a critical role in promoting cultural diversity and community within ITW. Employee Resource Groups play a vital role in engaging employees at all levels. These employee-led organizations bring together diverse groups of people and their allies to share experiences and participate in professional development workshops to help accelerate our path to full potential.

As a division of ITW, we are fully committed to creating an inclusive environment where every individual is treated with respect and able to be their authentic self. To reach our full potential it takes all of us – and that’s why we value the unique perspectives, experience and ideas that our colleagues contribute across our entire enterprise.

We are proud to have our Divisional D&I Committee which is an employee led team working to drive our D&I agenda in close collaboration with our leadership team and ITW Employee Resource Groups (ERGs).

The D&I Committee is pleased to share a video with you.

The video includes members of the committee and employees from within the division sharing their own words and stories to support the topic of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion at ITW Construction Products UK Nordics.

 

The mission of the ITW Women’s Network (IWN) is to maintain an inclusive workplace environment and attract, develop and retain quality female talent and leaders, in accordance with our enterprise strategy. Overseen by our Women’s Leadership Development Council, IWN is open to all businesses, functions and levels. The network’s regional model means we have chapters across our various locations, which host networking events, leadership development and skill-building seminars, and local outreach events.

 

Our Young Professionals Network (YPN) is dedicated to building a community made up of early career talent. The ERG established regional chapters across the globe, focused on empowering early-in-career professionals across ITW by building a community for the next generation of ITW leadership through social platforms, networking activities, and development opportunities

 

Pride at ITW is an employee resource group that is focused on empowering LGBTQ+ colleagues and allies through building a sense of belonging and engagement while promoting shared respect and understanding of LGBTQ+ issues.

Pride at ITW was formed to expand ITW’s commitment to diversity and inclusion and attract and retain the very best talent through career development and advancement, community advocacy, networking and fellowship.

 
 

“The company is very inclusive. The atmosphere is really good and everyone can speak to each other, it doesn’t matter what your role is or where you sit within the organisation.

Generally the staff are all encouraged to be involved in everything that is going on”
