Zoetis Inc. (NYSE:ZTS) has been named to Fair360’s Top 50 Companies list for the first time, underscoring the company’s progress and sustained commitment to advancing Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DE&I). Zoetis is the only animal health company included in this year’s Top 50 rankings.

“Zoetis’ DE&I focus begins with our dedicated Board of Directors and executive team of diverse experiences, backgrounds, and perspectives, promoting an inclusive environment for all colleagues at all levels,” said Evelyn Ortiz, Chief Talent, Diversity & Inclusion Officer at Zoetis. "We are extremely proud of our progress advancing inclusion within our company and the animal health industry and are committed to driving positive change into the future.”

Highlights of Zoetis’ application for the Fair360 Top 50 ranking include:

  • Leadership Accountability: The Zoetis Executive Team and Board of Directors is composed of people of diverse backgrounds, experiences, and races/ethnicities, and they are accountable for the company’s DE&I strategy and progress. The company’s executive team members participate in Colleague Resource Group (CRG) events, speak about DE&I on behalf of the company at events both internally and externally, and participate in education events and experiences related to DE&I.
  • Workplace Practices and Talent Programs: Zoetis strives to create a work environment where all colleagues feel valued, supported and inspired to give their best. To support equity in colleague development, every colleague has the opportunity to create a customized, individualized, self-paced individual development plan with support from their manager and organization. Zoetis also offers unique development programs in line with our tailored approach to colleague development. Additionally, Zoetis has nine CRGs, which are an important catalyst to foster a diverse, inclusive environment while positively impacting the company’s business and community. CRGs work with leadership to address obstacles that different groups face, while promoting allyship and generating ideas for solutions.

  • Philanthropy: Zoetis partners with non-profit organizations and institutions to advance inclusion and equity in the animal health industry and provide an opportunity for colleagues to give back to the communities where they live and work. Some of Zoetis’ current partnerships include Minorities in Agriculture, Natural Resources and Related Sciences (MANRRS) and INROADS, organizations that help underrepresented high school and college students learn about career paths and opportunities.
