CAMBRIDGE, Mass. ~ Royal Philips, a global leader in health technology, has been named to Forbes' 2023 "America's Best Employers for Diversity" list for the fourth time. This list is limited to 500 organizations across the country and just 13 in the Health Care Equipment & Services category.
Philips has taken steps to ensure that their employees feel included and valued, with initiatives such as 12 volunteer-led employee resource groups globally, 10,000+ members and 14 executive sponsors, mentoring programs, and nearly doubling its number of Black employees in company leadership roles. The company also provides learning campaigns aimed at mindfulness and workshops on topics like mitigating bias.

We are not only committed to transformation but lasting sustainable change that yields the result of a diverse workplace inclusive and equitable for all."
