What Does Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging Mean to Us?
Lumentum’s definition of Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DIB) is built on the philosophy that our differences broaden our perspectives and support a thriving work environment that further pushes us to innovate.
Our Mission
As a global, multicultural company, Lumentum recognizes and appreciates the importance of creating an environment where all employees feel included and empowered to do their best work. Each employee’s unique experiences, perspectives, and viewpoints strengthen us as a company and increase our competitive advantage.
“Diversity, inclusion, and belonging are vital to ensuring Lumentum is the best place to work for everyone. Together, our differences strengthen us as a company, stimulate innovation and increase our competitive advantage. We’ve made significant progress over the past few years, building a growing ecosystem of resources, programs, and employee groups. But our journey has only just begun, and we remain committed to continuously enhancing our efforts to create an environment that fosters openness and inclusion for the benefit of all.”
Alan Lowe, President and Chief Executive Officer
Our Goals
Our Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging program has established ambitious goals to increase the representation of several traditionally underrepresented groups and enhance diversity across our employee population. We regularly review the status of these initiatives during quarterly Board of Directors meetings, as we work to make continued progress along our journey.
