Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

We value, respect and celebrate diversity within our global workforce.

Committed to DEI every day

In partnership with our dedicated team members, the Elanco Global DEI Council promotes a healthier enterprise by helping make our Employee Promise of an inclusive culture come to life. This employee-led and leadership-supported group influences the company’s strategic DEI direction and initiatives.

We’re working to build a diverse global workforce, underpinned by a culture that fosters a sense of belonging, values unique differences and points of view, ensures individuals are treated fairly and equitably, and encourages people to bring their whole self to work every day.

DEI efforts empower each of us to live our lives in and out of work as our authentic selves. We celebrate our differences and a culture that not only supports us as individuals but values the unique thoughts we bring. Elanco doesn't just talk about DEI, our employees live and drive it forward, and that is why I am proud to be part of our Global DEI council

We removed minimum education requirements, where appropriate, for U.S. job postings to ensure our job requirements don’t inadvertently advantage certain demographics over others.

We support LGBTQ+ employees by continuously reviewing and evolving our policies and business practices. In 2021, we joined more than 300 companies signing the Human Rights Campaign statement opposing anti-LGBTQ+ legislation.

Our Employee Resource Groups

Throughout the year, we host training and events to celebrate diversity and promote a culture of inclusion and belonging. Our nine employee resource groups (ERGs) serve as communities to celebrate dimensions of difference, resources for their members’ unique needs, and change catalysts to help educate colleagues and drive Elanco’s promise of an inclusive culture. Any employee is eligible to join any ERG.
