We value the diversity of our employees and seek to
collectively manage these talents to deliver innovative products to our customers. We strive to
create a working environment that respects individual differences. Bayer has a dedicated Diversity
and WorkLife office that provides strategic direction on a variety of valuable programs such as
Employee Network Groups, Mentoring, Diversity Training, National Awards submissions such as Working
Mother, Corporate and Site Diversity Councils, and the bi-annual employee Diversity Conference.
Bayer is frequently recognized for our efforts in the area of diversity with several national
awards. Most recently, this recognition includes:
► Catalyst Award, Top U.S. Honor for Diversity
► BusinessWeek, "Ideal Undergraduate Employers"
► Fortune, "America's Most Admired Companies"
► Working Mother
• Top 100 Award (6 times)
• "20 Best Green Companies for America's Children"
• Top 10 Companies for Lactation Program
Many Bayer sites feature employee networking organizations/affinity groups and other
opportunities to provide a forum for Bayer employees to share experiences, build collaborative,
rewarding relationships, and serve as a vehicle for personal development. In addition, these groups
work to improve our operations within both the organization and the communities in which we serve.
ACCESS (African American), WINGS (Women) and LINKS (New Professionals) are three examples of
successful groups.
