Being a leader in diversity is nothing new to Guardian — in fact, it became the foundation of our history when a group of immigrants joined together to provide equitable access to life insurance. Now, more than 160 years later, we’re evolving this commitment by accelerating our work to integrate equity and inclusion across everything we do — both inside and outside our company. We approach this work inclusive of all, regardless of sex, race, gender, disability, sexual orientation, and other demographics. This includes our behaviors, processes, procedures, and products. Step by step, we’re applying an equity-and-inclusion lens to all we do to create stronger, more meaningful diverse outcomes. Nothing is too small to consider — or too big to tackle. It’s key to ensuring that our inclusive workplace, as well as the diverse solutions and services we provide, reflect our world.
For our colleagues: We aim to provide an environment where everyone feels seen, heard, supported, inspired, valued, and empowered to succeed. This is how we make a difference in people's lives — and is a critical component of our culture.
For our customers: We aim to ensure that our products and services are inclusive and provide equitable access for both existing and prospective customers. That’s why we intentionally seek out inclusive perspectives in our approach to researching, developing, and enhancing diverse, innovative solutions for our customers.
For our communities: We believe you feel good when you do good. That’s why we encourage a culture of inclusive service through our Corporate Impact initiatives, such as sustainability work, community engagement activities, disaster relief efforts, and Guardian for Good, a matching gifts and volunteer awards program.
Our commitment to equity and inclusion plays a fundamental role in our initiatives, partnerships, and sponsorships. We’re proud and humbled to be recognized for our achievements — and we continually strive to grow and improve.
