STRIVING FOR DIVERSITY, INCLUSION AND EQUALITY IN THE FASHION INDUSTRY
23 September 2020
Diversity, inclusion and equality is fundamental to UGG, both within our walls and across the communities we engage with. We are committed to promoting and championing these values through everything we do and strive to create a culture of inclusion where employees can freely and equally contribute regardless of gender, gender identity, age, race, disability, or sexual orientation. All of our employees are regularly trained in our CODE OF ETHICS, which outlines these values.
UGG has been a proud partner of the Pacific Pride Foundation (PPF) for five years, an essential platform for connecting people, driving community and togetherness and standing in solidarity visibly with the LGBTQ+ community.
As part of our commitment to reducing inequality, and doing our part to build a sustainable and socially responsible business, in 2016 we partnered with BSR’s HERproject. HERproject is a collaborative initiative that brings global brands like ours together with suppliers and local NGOs to empower women.
In June 2020 we publicly pledged to do more in the fight against racism, following the death of George Floyd and the resulting protests around the world as racial injustice, continues to impact millions of people.
