Diversity and Inclusion

At Medtronic, unique insights and fresh ideas drive our innovation. Diverse employees help us take our technologies to new levels, and make sure our products and processes work across cultures. That's true whether we're designing a device control panel, a physician training program, or an inventory tracking system.

In fact, maintaining a good balance of diverse people is so important to our success that our CEO developed annual Inclusion Awards. They recognize individuals, businesses, and departments that are attracting and retaining a diverse mix of highly talented employees.

In addition to internal diversity-promoting programs, we also have external programs to help eliminate disparities in device treatment, so that patient access to our therapies is not based on race, ethnicity, or gender.

To learn more about how we embrace Diversity, see our Diversity brochure.
