Areas of Strategic Focus
Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging
At UKG, the diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEI&B) initiative focuses on more than hiring, developing, and retaining a diverse global UKG workforce. We encourage a culture of belonging, fostering an inclusive environment that celebrates differences and maximizes innovation. We know that diversity strengthens leadership teams, and we work every day to continue creating a culture of trust and empowerment.
Talent and Culture
Our core values and behaviors provide the foundation for building an intentional culture for UKG and ensure we live by “our purpose is people.” UKG invests in initiatives and programs that not only reflect what is most important to us today, but also what we aspire to be in the future, including fostering employee satisfaction, talent recruitment and retention, and company culture.
