Inclusion & Diversity
We all have a role in building a community where everyone belongs. Where you can speak your mind, be yourself, and feel supported. It's how we achieve more together — for each other, for our customers, and for the world.
Why do we put inclusion first? Because inclusion is about everybody. No matter who you are, where you are, what background you have, the experiences you've had, inclusion is about all of us. Diversity is the richness we all bring. Both are important to create the culture and the environment we want to have here at Fortive.
Inclusion
A culture where everyone feels comfortable being themselves and have what they need to do their best work.
Diversity
The combination of different experiences, perspectives, and voices.
