Diversity

The challenges faced by Mercer’s 25,000 clients don’t fit neatly into any one category, and neither do our 19,000 employees ... we like it that way.

Harnessing the diverse backgrounds, experiences and approaches of our people isn't just a business necessity - it's the right thing to do. At Mercer, we pride ourselves on having a diverse and inclusive culture, where different perspectives - professional and personal - are respected and welcomed.

At Mercer, diversity means:

Inclusion. We welcome, appreciate and respect all of our colleagues – of all backgrounds, races, genders, ages, religions, national origins, sexual orientations and gender identities.
Opportunity. All employees at Mercer have an equal opportunity to contribute to the firm and progress in their careers.
Success. We succeed when our clients succeed. To create comprehensive business solutions that showcase our broad capabilities, Mercer fosters an environment in which we achieve strategic advantages from seeking, cultivating and incorporating a wide variety of perspectives.
Community. Diversity is about the engagement of people in Mercer’s global marketplace: our employees, clients and suppliers, as well as the people and governments in the countries and local communities that we operate.

Diversity is one of our core values, and our diversity efforts center around our commitment to our employees, to our clients and to the communities in which we work.
