Diversity and Inclusion
Fostering a culture that values and leverages diverse perspectives.
D&I at Arch
Arch recognizes that bringing together different backgrounds and experiences drives diverse idea generation, innovation and better decision making. With nearly 6,000 employees and offices on four continents, we know that fostering a culture that seeks out and capitalizes on diverse perspectives is a business imperative.
We define diversity as all the various traits and characteristics that make people unique — both seen and unseen. Equally important is inclusion, or the behaviors and social norms that make people feel heard, valued and respected.
Our goal is to create an inclusive culture where a variety of diverse opinions are heard and leverged through teamwork and collaboration. Only then will we create the best new ideas and innovations; only then will we truly enable possibility.
This commitment is embedded in our Values and contained in our policies, including Arch’s Code of Business Conduct. We are focused on creating sustainable D&I results for our colleagues, our communities and in our culture.
Among our commitments to our colleagues is to have a workforce that better reflects the communities in which we operate and the markets we serve. As we look for the best talent, we are focused on developing recruiting strategies that expand our access into previously untapped talent markets, while adopting processes that promote objectivity and equity.
Code of Business Conduct
Every employee reviews and signs Arch’s Code of Business Conduct both when they are hired and on an annual basis.
For Arch employees, we offer a variety of Employee Networks and Resource Groups. These grassroots networks benefit our employees while creating strategic business impacts, and we will continue to grow current groups and create new networks across the company. Our current Employee Networks and Resource Groups are:
- Abled not Labeled and Allies.
- Black Professionals and Allies.
- LGBTQ+ and Allies.
- Veterans and Allies.
- Women and Allies.
- Early Careers and Allies.
