BAE Systems is committed to inspiring a culture where everyone is valued and feels like they belong. We all play a role in advancing diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI), and each of our eight Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) are integral to our DEI strategy.
The Multicultural Network is the umbrella organization for ERGs at BAE Systems, Inc. Open to all employees, our ERGs are centers for learning, growth and belonging. They create impactful opportunities to ask questions and learn, foster personal and professional development, and advance an inclusive culture that enables employees to be their best and most sincere selves.
The ERGs represent eight demographic areas and engage our workforce in events, programs and initiatives that provide opportunities to learn, connect with others, and gain valuable leadership experience. Each ERG has its own leadership team and is supported by a champion from the Senior Leadership Team, as well as other executive sponsors.
Additionally, each ERG has selected a social impact partner to work with throughout the year in an effort to invest intentionally in the communities in which we live and work.
