Diversity

Come discover a world of people with a variety of backgrounds, experiences, styles, cultures, skills and competencies. Share your own unique background and insights with us as well. Our goal is to create an open, inclusive work environment where all of our employees can realize their potential. This commitment is core to our belief system, as expressed in The Chevron Way.

It's not just the right thing to do — it’s good business practice. We believe that diversity will help us succeed as a global enterprise. We seek people who can work effectively with others from all walks of life and who feel free to contribute their best.

At a global level, we support universal human rights and work to improve the quality of life in the countries where we operate. Highlights include:

  • our commitment to the Global Sullivan Principles;
  • our award-winning Supplier Diversity/Small Business Program;
  • our contributions, grants and scholarships to diversity programs.

Within Chevron, operating companies and departments have strategies to build a diverse workforce, including proactive recruiting and outreach programs, diversity councils, employee networks, personnel development committees, training, discussion groups and developmental assignments for employees.

As part of our team, you'll have opportunities to demonstrate your commitment to diversity:

  • Each employee works with his or her supervisor to create a diversity action plan to show personal development and help Chevron achieve its diversity objectives. Diversity activities include things like: participation in employee networks, attending diversity learning events, mentoring, using assessments to see how others perceive you and volunteering in activities that increase your understanding of the differences and similarities among people.
  • In employee network groups, employees collaborate across the company and advance our diversity objectives. Employee networks are formed based on gender, race, age, national origin, disability or sexual orientation. Activities include sponsoring cultural events, participating in community outreach, suggesting ways to help the company build an inclusive culture and partnering with other groups, such as Recruiting, Public Affairs and Human Resources, to advance the company's diversity objectives.
  • Employees enjoy cultural events throughout the year, as well as participate in diversity conferences and lunches with executives.
