Starbucks is dedicated to being an inclusive, equitable, accessible and diverse company, with a responsibility to help create opportunity and advance equity in every community we serve. We do this by fostering an inclusive culture that values diverse perspectives and experiences.
Supporting Our Objectives
Starbucks has established programs and initiatives aimed at supporting our strategic objectives and helping our partners thrive – both individually and collectively.
With feedback from our partners and communities, we continue to make improvements and changes to our approach to ensure that opportunities and resources are distributed consistently and equitably, allowing all individuals to actively engage and contribute to our organization.
We seek to be transparent about diversity at Starbucks. Our current workforce diversity data can be found here.
