Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

Mallinckrodt strives to create a fair and inclusive workplace where every employee has equal access to opportunities, resources, and pathways for growth. We have established policies and practices to protect our employees and applicants from discrimination of any kind and to comply with applicable state and local laws governing nondiscrimination. By nurturing an inclusive workplace, we tap into the full potential of our talent – enabling us to better serve the needs of patients and communities worldwide.

We build our culture of inclusion and belonging through a range of initiatives and activities to enhance our collective experience, including:

• Training and Education: We offer training and education programs to raise awareness, foster understanding, and promote inclusive behaviors across all levels of the organization.

• Leadership and Opportunity: We pledge to foster an environment where all employees have access to development opportunities to grow, excel and lead within our teams.

• Community Outreach: We extend our commitment beyond our walls, collaborating with communities and organizations to promote health equity and support underserved populations.

• Employee Engagement: Our Business Resources Groups (BRGs) provide a platform for our employees to connect, share experiences, and contribute to initiatives that enhance inclusivity and cultural understanding.

“We view our commitment to a strong culture of diversity, equity and inclusion as indispensable to being a ‘high-performing organization,’ one of our core strategies. Put simply, we have better ideas for how to serve our customers, patients, and other diverse stakeholders because we empower a broad array of employees from different backgrounds and respect the unique contributions they bring to the table.”

Sigurdur (Siggi) Olafsson President and Chief Executive Officer
