Our Commitment to Inclusion & Belonging

Our promise to our customers, industry, society and each other is to deliver our best.

We can only do that by being open to the full range of experiences and perspectives that our differences provide. Inclusion and Belonging are cornerstones of our corporate values of creativity, openness, responsibility and entrepreneurial spirit.

BASF’s programs foster an inclusive workplace encouraging real engagement among all our employees to help us deliver on our aspiration to be the leading chemical company for our customers.

We offer numerous Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) to ensure our employees feel like they belong and can network with people who share similar interests. 

BASF provides Quiet Rooms at many of our locations in which employees of all faiths or no religious affiliation at all are welcome to utilize for prayer, meditation and the opportunity to seek calm. BASF also provides Mother’s Rooms at many of our locations complete with a refrigerator. The areas are private, quiet, and include counter space and a cozy chair.

At BASF, we all belong to something bigger. #belongatBASF

We're All Accountable

An inclusive work environment that values all of our employees’ talents, experiences and ideas leads to more innovation and higher performance for our customers. BASF’s focus on people has helped establish a culture that attracts, develops and retains talent.

How We Advance Inclusion & Belonging

From key partnerships with universities and associations to employee resources groups, mentorship, and work in the community, BASF is not just talking the talk – it is walking the walk of an inclusive workplace.

Attracting Talent

We seek the best talent from all sources – leading universities, business connections, trade associations, national diversity conferences, partnerships to hire veterans, and referrals from our own employees.
