DIVERSITY AT ASM
At ASM, diversity represents the rich range of differences between our people. We understand that every individual is unique. We recognize and respect the differences between individuals and we understand that these differences can include ethnicity, religious beliefs, national origin, age, gender, sexual orientation, family status, physical ability, experience and perspective.
WHY DOES DIVERSITY MATTER TO ASM?
From our earliest days, we have valued the range of insights and opinions that come from people from across the world with differing life experiences. At ASM, your ideas make a difference. In fact, we say, "difference" is what makes a difference here.
DIVERSITY ADDS VALUE
Our global workforce comes from many different backgrounds, cultures, life stages and nationalities, providing us the opportunity to appreciate a wider range of ideas and opinions. We welcome the contributions of all our people and value the great advantage that diversity brings to ASM’s innovation and excellence. We believe both that it is good for all our people to work in a diverse and inclusive culture and that it is an asset to our business performance, bringing us sustainable commercial success.
HOW WE SUSTAIN DIVERSITY
We encourage diversity across all areas of our business including recruitment, development and mentoring, appointments, employee retention, training programs, flexible work arrangements, forms of leave, planning, policies and procedures, and strategy.
