Cummins recognized for diversity

Cummins, Inc. has been recognized for its diverse workplaces. On Tuesday, DiversityInc named Cummins one of the Top 50 Companies for Diversity for the eleventh consecutive year. Cummins ranked No. 21 on the 2017 annual list, which company officials say included more than 1,000 participating companies.

“The more we grow and expand globally, the more important it is that we attract and develop employees from around the world who have the knowledge and skills to work effectively in the markets in which we do business,” said Executive Director, Global Diversity and Right Environment, Kelley Bertoux Creveling. “We’re at our best when we fully include those unique perspectives, experiences and languages – truly leveraging the power of diversity and inclusion.”

The DiversityInc Top 50 list, issued yearly since 2001, recognizes the nation’s top companies for diversity and inclusion management. The companies on the list excel in areas such as hiring, retaining and promoting women, minorities, people with disabilities, LGBT and veterans. In addition to making the Top 50 list, Cummins also made DiversityInc’s specialty lists for “Top Companies for Progress,” “Top Companies for Executive Women” and “Top Companies for Global Diversity.”
