Empowering Our People
Our mission of transforming mobility begins and ends with
people. It takes a talented and highly skilled workforce
to design and build products that save lives, reduce
society’s impact on the environment and connect vehicles
in ways that improve the quality of life for people around
the world. Through our culture and our shared passion,
we align our employees to this common purpose and
encourage collaboration, innovation and contributions
from diverse voices.
Our people are integral to our progress in building a more
sustainable business. We embrace diversity as an engine
of innovation, and we vigorously promote healthy, safe
workplaces and employee wellbeing. These principles in
action were on display during the pandemic — we shut
down and restarted more than 220 facilities globally in
a matter of weeks, implementing industry-leading
protocols to ensure the safety of our teams and deliver
