Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Belonging

We are committed to creating an environment that values each person for their unique gifts, empowers them to bring their authentic selves to work each day, and enables them to thrive. We embrace creativity and innovation and support the growth and well-being of our employees and communities. Our goal is to make a positive impact on the communities where we do business and contribute to a more just society by engaging in philanthropy and public and social commitments.

We are intentional in our partnerships, building relationships based on ethics, fairness, and mutual respect. Together with our partners and customers, we will continue to promote practices that create a positive economic impact on the communities where they operate.

Our commitment to innovation is reflected across our portfolio of brands, products, and services. As creators who aim to inspire consumers and beauty professionals to look, feel, and be their true selves, we advance our products with the highest standards, combining science, technology, and artistry to develop offerings across our brand portfolio. Our products are designed to address a broad range of needs for hair and nails, delivering exceptional performance for all. Since proper usage is key to achieving optimal results, Wella Company’s professional education team works closely with global salon communities to ensure they are up to date with the latest hair and nail trends, empowering them to perfect their craft and perform at their best.

We ensure that our corporate training programs promote inclusivity, with a global focus on Unconscious Bias Awareness and Mitigation. In Fiscal Year 2024, we educated and inspired nearly 650,000 hairstylists around the world in our face-to-face and digital sessions, covering many aspects of hair styling and the use of Wella Company products. To help everyone feel their best when using our products, we provide education on how to enhance the natural characteristics of all hair types and textures.

We successfully delivered on our ambition to exceed 50-50 gender representation on our Board of Directors. Today, 59% of all employees at Wella Company are female, with 46% of women holding Director positions and above. In our 3+ years as an independent company, we have reached our goal of 100% gender pay parity across the organization. These accomplishments were achieved through a commitment to merit-based hiring and promotions, ensuring that all employees are recognized and rewarded based on their skills, performance, and contributions.
