Rooted in our long-held values of respect for the individual, inclusion and equality, our Racial Equity commitments will help us in our continuous efforts to make equity a reality at The Estée Lauder Companies.

Listening & Learning

• Fostering a stronger internal culture of advocacy and inclusion to help employees share their voices, be heard and collectively affect change.

Talent & Opportunity for our Black Employees

• Ensure that we are providing more equitable access to professional development and advancement for our Black employees in the United States and hold ourselves accountable for creating a workforce that is more representative and responsive to people of all backgrounds.

Representation

• Ensure that the end-to-end creative process accurately and consistently represents the Black experience, engages Black professionals and that our products meet the needs of our Black consumers.

Suppliers

• Ensure that we leverage our power to support Black-owned businesses. We commit to at least double the amount we currently spend on sourcing ingredients, packaging materials and supplies from Black-owned businesses over the next three years.

Investing in Change

• Meaningfully support external organizations and non-profits pushing for systemic changes and racial and social justice.
