Diversity and Inclusion
At Marico, we believe in fostering a diversity conscious, diversity ready, and socially inclusive workplace. We believe in harbouring a socially inclusive and diverse environment that lets our employees bring their authentic selves to work This can help build a workplace that is truly inclusive, respects diverse thought processes, encourages varied ideas and is able to make the right business decisions that create truly valuable outcomes for our consumers. Over the years, through leadership commitment and by aligning the larger ecosystem, we have made significant strides in building our D&I vision that has resulted in significant policy, process, and infrastructural changes. From making all our policies gender neutral to extending same sex partner benefits we have tried to ensure our employees feel valued and safeguarded irrespective of their diversities.
To ensure proper governance mechanisms, a Inclusion & Diversity council has been set up to provide governance and oversight to the D&I vision. The council is led by the CEO and has a total of 8 members including one external member acting as a consultant. Inclusion metrics are laid out, tracked, and quarterly reported to the CEO/Executive committees. Grievance reporting and redressal is facilitated through Code of conduct and Internal Committee. Marico’s POSH policy is gender neutral.
