At Aerospace, our people are our greatest resource. To solve the hardest problems in space, we depend on the brightest and most skilled individuals in the aerospace and engineering industry. The vast breadth and difficulty of these challenges demands that we recruit, employ and retain a diverse workforce whose rich backgrounds provide an expansive vista of perspectives needed to generate solutions that ultimately advance our nation’s security and well-being.

While Aerospace consistently outpaces industry benchmarks for the percentage of women and people of color in our workforce, the events of the past year have prompted meaningful opportunities for deeper reflection and productive conversations on how we can better address the need for racial justice, equality and meaningful change for our employees and our communities.

Aerospace has established a strategic framework to augment and reinforce our efforts in creating long-lasting impact for a vibrant and inclusive workplace. This holistic effort spans the entire enterprise and is based on a foundation of six critical Focus Areas: Recruitment, Representation, Retention, Education and Training, K-12 STEM Outreach and Community Outreach.
