EEO-1

At Kimberly-Clark, we believe our business success is intricately tied to creating workplaces, communities, and experiences where inclusion and diversity are evident and thriving. We prioritize the need to cultivate a workforce where all are included and empowered to do their best work.

Employing people from disparate backgrounds, cultures, and experiences amplifies our ability to gather insights, foster innovation, and understand the culture, context, and mindset of consumers around the world. As a company who serves consumers and communities, we believe our workforce should be comprised of people who look, think, and behave like the people who use our products – now and in the future.

As such, we support workforce inclusion and diversity and consider it a fundamental business strategy. We continue to make progress on our short-and long-term goals for women and U.S. People of Color in all management roles. Read more about Kimberly-Clark’s inclusion and diversity strategies in our latest Global Sustainability Report.

We are also committed to increasing transparency and disclosure. For the first time, we are publicly disclosing our Employer Information Report (EEO-1) submitted to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. The EEO-1 Report is a compliance survey mandated by U.S. federal statute and regulations. The report provides a snapshot of our U.S workforce demographics as of December 31, 2020 based on standardized race/ethnicity, gender and job categories. Please note that these prescribed categories are different from how we organize our workforce and our jobs and how we apply our inclusion and diversity objectives and initiatives. We organize our workforce to meet the specific needs of our business. Also, our inclusion and diversity initiatives are global, while the EEO-1 is solely U.S.-focused.
