At AstraZeneca, our Inclusion & Diversity (I&D) mission is to create an inclusive and equitable environment where people belong, using our diversity as a competitive advantage to push the boundaries of science to deliver life-changing medicines to patients. I&D is essential to our success and central to delivering exceptional employee experiences that benefit our people, business, and society. We believe a diverse workforce reflecting the culture and background of our patients is pivotal to our business strategy. A key priority has been fostering an equitable, inclusive workplace, particularly for women. We have intentional initiatives aimed at creating an environment for women to thrive at AstraZeneca and ensuring that they are represented in senior and leadership roles. Further, we've consistently invested in policies, development opportunities, and wellness infrastructure to ensure a safe and empowering workplace. We fully support the UN WEPs initiative, which aligns with our focus on advancing gender equality and empowering women in the workplace.
