Together for a common goal.

It starts at the top

Xerox Canada President and Chief Executive Officer Kevin Warren describes our commitment to diversity like this:

"Diversity is a constant we can be proud of at Xerox. We live and work in a diverse world and having a diverse workforce is a competitive advantage and makes good business sense. When we foster an inclusive culture it allows us to leverage our differences, reach our full potential, and ultimately be an employer and supplier of choice.

Diversity and inclusion benefits everyone, let’s celebrate it every day."

More than a part of Xerox

It is Xerox. Diversity is essential to our business. Our environment. Our teams. Our products. Our history. We operate in 160 countries and employ professionals from every corner of the globe. Every day, we bring together people from different disciplines and backgrounds to make our products and services even better. Our commitment to diversity and inclusion is real, and it can be felt throughout Xerox.

Additionally, we rated as one of the Top 10 companies in hiring minorities, women, disabled, and gay and lesbian employees by FORTUNE, Forbes, Working Mother, Latino Style, and Enable magazines.

Supplier Diversity
