Events celebrating our unique attributes
Each year, Perrigo hosts events across the globe to promote an inclusive culture. Below highlights some of the key events held to engage Perrigo employees and leaders.
Focus on women
Our Leadership Lens:Focus on women events are part of our global initiative featuring topics designed to inform, inspire, and grow our female talent.
Perrigo understands that a healthy company means investing in its diverse talent. Half of our global workforce are women, an area which leadership is passionate about developing.
As part of our focus on women initiative, Perrigo's International Women’s Day brought together women and men from across the globe and received resounding positive feedback.
Disability awareness
Perrigo works to foster a compassionate and inclusive work environment for individuals that are differently abled. Perrigo is proud to join the Valuable 500 campaign, which calls on 500 global business leaders to make a tangible commitment to addressing disability exclusion in business.
Perrigo has recognized National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM) to celebrate the contributions of workers with disabilities, while educating the organization about the strengths they bring to the workplace. Activities focused on raising employee and manager awareness of the role each of us has in fostering a supportive work culture for people with disabilities.
Veterans day
Veterans are a vital part of our workforce and their service and traditions are recognized and supported through veteran's organizations within the company.
Perrigo Michigan holds an annual veterans day event where a flag raising ceremony is performed by veterans across the company.
The event also brings together members of several branches as a networking experience to share how their service applies to the workplace, and provides a gathering place for service members to come together.
Pride week
Pride week celebrates the LGBTQ+ community within Perrigo and promotes an accepting environment globally. Perrigo's Dublin location is leading the way by hosting events to demonstrate support for local and global employees who identify as part of the LGBTQ+ community.
The Dublin office hosts speakers, events, and advocates to improve the lives of LGBTQ+ people across Ireland. The team also takes a 'Pride Stride' through the city, and holds a celebration at the office.
These efforts not only represent the supportive internal culture Perrigo is building, but also demonstrates the values in which we engage with our consumers and customers.
“Perrigo is a global company with a wide range of rich cultures and backgrounds that make up the fabric of our organization. To highlight these unique attributes that make us an employer of choice, we recently launched a new global Diversity and Inclusion Committee. Our committee is working to engage our employees, leadership, and vendors as we celebrate the things that make our organization a unique and diverse self-care company.”
"Our goal is to foster an even more inclusive work environment by recognizing, respecting and leveraging our differing backgrounds, perspectives and ideas to meet or exceed the needs of our workforce, consumer base, and the communities in which we operate. Diversity includes everyone. Together, we can make self-care better. Together, we can create an even stronger, more creative, and innovative Perrigo.”
