Henkel

At Henkel, diversity is deeply embedded in our company culture. We know that diverse teams stimulate innovation and new ways of problem solving; yet they need an inclusive culture and leadership team to help them function at their best. To support inclusion, Henkel has 15 employee resources groups (ERGs) with over 1,000 members in our facilities throughout North America. that offer networking, career development, and volunteer opportunities. ERGs are voluntary, employee-led groups that foster an inclusive workplace at a grassroots level. ERGs promote awareness and understanding among colleagues and offer a platform for mentoring and career development support. Members of our ERGs advocate, volunteer and give back to create positive change and build community inside and outside of Henkel. 

Our ERGs include the Professional Women’s Forum and the Women’s Professional Network whose missions are to foster a strong corporate and community connection among women at Henkel. 

At Henkel, we acknowledge the importance of a healthy work-life-balance to employees’ creativity, ingenuity and productivity. We support the evolving needs of our diverse employees through policies that ensure flexible, safe working environments for all. 

At Henkel, family matters. Our gender-neutral parental leave policy provides six weeks of paid time off for bonding with a new child resulting from birth, adoption or surrogacy. This is in addition to short-term disability benefits paid for an eligible employee who gives birth.
