Why It's on the Top 50: The automaker returns to the Top 50 after moving to the 25 Noteworthy list last year. Its improvement is largely attributed to its Corporate Communications and Supplier Diversity scores.
Diversity Strengths: Twenty-two percent of its employees participate in at least one employee-resource group, compared with an average of 19 percent for the Top 50. Diversity training is mandatory for all employees, compared with 70 percent of the Top 50. The company spends 6.5 percent of its Tier I (direct contractor) procurement with Black, Asian, Latino and Native American suppliers, compared with an average of 5 percent for the Top 50.
Yukitoshi Funo, Chairman and CEO: "We strive to have an employee, dealer and supplier base that reflects both our customers and our communities. Our diverse and inclusive work environment is key to promoting teamwork, innovation and continuous improvement in all aspects of our business. As the U.S. population is expected to become increasingly diverse, it is critical to our continued success that our organization understands the diverse needs and expectations of our customers, our communities, our employees and our business partners."
Jerome Miller, Chief Diversity Officer, Toyota Motor Sales: "The Toyota Way is built on two pillars, respect for people and continuous improvement. With support from our associates, we have created a culture that encourages teamwork and positive results. Our associates serve in many capacities, such as diversity champions, members of business partnering groups, and in our associate involvement committees. They actively participate in various community events and support a broad range of charitable organizations."
Joe Husman, Chief Diversity Officer, Toyota Financial Services: "Consistent with our corporate culture, Toyota Financial Services strives to operate in accordance with the principles of the Toyota Way, which is based on respect for people and continuous improvement."
Charlotte Neal, Chief Diversity Officer, Toyota Motor Engineering and Manufacturing North America: "Respect for people, one of the two pillars of The Toyota Way, is the foundation of our corporate culture. From the day new employees enter our work force, this philosophy is ingrained in their DNA through education and training, equitable processes and policies, continuous communication and the behaviors exemplified by our leaders."
