Pioneer Demographics
In 2022, women represented 25% of our workforce, including 28% of senior executives and 31% of our Board. The overall population of racially diverse employees has decreased since 2019 due to the sale of Pioneer’s integrated service companies; however, we continue to achieve steady growth since then within senior executive and Board representation. Pioneer actively leverages our Campus Recruiting program to diversify our pipeline of incoming talent. The Executive Committee purposefully reviews the demographics of our employee base and intentionally monitors the advancement of diversity at all levels of the company. Increased awareness of the demographic trends throughout the talent life cycle can give us insight into the future of the company and enable us to provide opportunities for all employees, ensure all voices are heard and better outcomes reached, all while we meet our DEI representation goals.
Equal Opportunity Employment
Our Equal Employment Opportunity policy provides equal employment opportunity for all qualified employees and applicants without regard to race, color, sexual orientation, gender or gender identity, religion, national origin, disability, veteran status, age, marital status, pregnancy, genetic information, or any other legally protected status. Pioneer does not and will not discriminate against any qualified employee or applicant based on any of the aforementioned factors.
Pioneer included sexual orientation and gender identity in our antiharassment and discrimination labor practices ahead of the 2020 U.S. Supreme Court ruling, which upheld those protections within the Civil Rights Act of 1964. We are also a proud member of the Business Coalition for the Equality Act. The coalition includes leading U.S. employers that support the Equality Act, federal legislation that would provide the same basic protections to LGBTQ+ people as are provided to other protected groups under federal law.
