Hormel Foods is committed to having an inclusive workplace and has nine employee resource groups (ERGs): Hormel African American Resource Group; Hormel Asian American Professionals Association; Nuestra Gente (Hormel Foods Hispanic Resource Group); Women’s Insights Network; Hormel Professionals Representing Out and United Individuals & Allies; Hormel Young Professionals Enterprise; Hormel Military Veterans Engagement Team; Hormel Food and Agriculture Resource Members; and Hormel Integrating Relevant Experiences. These groups help us better understand diverse groups of consumers and relate to diverse groups of employees. Read more about these ERGs on our corporate website.
We work hard to ensure we engage in nondiscriminatory pay practices so that our team members are compensated fairly and appropriately, regardless of gender, race, age or any other protected status. In 2018, there were no substantiated reports of discrimination. There were also no industrial disputes, strikes or lockouts. Therefore, Hormel Foods did not lose any hours of working time.
