Diversity

Every voice. Every day.

Being open to every voice, every day, brings our company value of diversity to life, and makes Avery Dennison a vibrant and engaging place to work. We’ve experienced how a variety of voices helps our businesses thrive, and drives growth and sustainability, and we know the value this depth of perspectives brings to our culture. We rely on each other to bring our best, and trust each other to listen and learn.

Diversity is embedded in our culture through a focus on engagement, inclusion and fairness for our employees around the globe, as measured by our annual employee experience survey.

This focus drives our reputation as a great place to work, attracting talent to join a team where employees can grow and be productive, innovate and make a meaningful difference.

Across our diverse, global team, every voice makes us stronger.

When we listen to and learn from each other, there is no limit to what we can achieve together.

Global awareness and recognition

Each year, we celebrate a variety of awareness events. Some events are driven by our regional employee resource groups, others are led by our Corporate team. We believe that awareness events promote belonging, connection and inclusion for all.

Regional DEI councils

Guided by our Regional DEI Councils, we drive a holistic strategy that advances engagement, inclusion and fairness. Strategically established in Asia Pacific, EMENA, Latin America and North America, these Councils ensure that regional needs are understood, acted upon, and integrated into our businesses and global strategy to shape an inclusive environment for our entire community.

Living our values: Our award-winning teams

Diversity is more than a company value, it’s a strength that propels us forward. Collectively, our team has received over 30 awards and recognitions worldwide which highlight our progress and achievements in advancing and strengthening our workplace culture.

Employee resource groups

Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) are an important part of our company culture. ERGs create opportunities for employees to learn and experience greater belonging. Our ERGs are open to all employees interested in learning about the experiences and challenges of their colleagues.

More than 3,200 employees worldwide are a member or ally of an ERG, actively building relationships and expanding networks across business units and functions, collaborating, showcasing and further developing skills, and advocating for a strong internal culture. Our ERG categories are broad, and members are active across each of the four regions in which we operate.

ERG categories include:

Asian Employees, Black/African American Employees, Caregiving, Hispanic/Latinx, LGBTQI+, People with Disabilities, Mental Health and Wellbeing, Potential and Ambition, Racially Ethnic Group, Veteran’s and Women’s Networking & Development.
