Business Resource Groups (BRGs)
BRGs are voluntary, company-sponsored groups of employees who work together to promote cultural awareness. They are a vital part of our Diversity and Inclusion efforts and provide a multidimensional lens that helps us better engage with our customers and the communities we serve. BRGs are open to all employees and participation is encouraged regardless of background.
Five of Bayer’s ten company recognized BRGs have a global footprint with chapters in several continents:
- ENABLE: Resource group for people with diverse abilities and allies
