EVERY VOICE MATTERS



We look at diversity across a broad set of dimensions. This helps us appreciate the uniqueness of all people and represent the full diversity present in the communities where we live and work. We’ve broadened how we search for, engage and promote talent. At Compass Minerals, we know that diverse experiences and thinking styles help us build an inclusive culture and exceptional business results.
DIVERSITY, BELONGING, INCLUSION AND EQUITY

As an organization, Compass Minerals is committed to creating a workplace that respects and values the diversity of the people and communities around us. Our diversity, belonging, inclusion and equity (DBIE) program includes speaker events, panel discussions, volunteer opportunities and more. These activities help us learn more about each other and better understand how an inclusive culture leads to high performance.

 
EMPLOYEE RESOURCE GROUPS

Through our DBIE initiatives, we strive to cultivate a sense of belonging for all employees. We want everyone to feel involved, represented and supported. Our employee resource groups (ERGs), open to all employees, are one way we work to achieve this goal. The ERGs provide mentoring and development, create engagement opportunities and help drive business results. Our company currently has six ERGs, including Advanced Career, Asian Employees and Allies, Black Employees and Allies, Compass Pride (LGBTQ+ and Allies), Emerging Leaders, and Women and Allies.

 

Diversity, Belonging, Inclusion, Equity - We are all essential at Compass Minerals
