Associates Bring Our Business To Life
Associates bring our business to life, and we aim to support them by making TJX a terrific place to work. We strive to attract talented individuals, teach them our off-price model, and support their careers. We are very proud of our culture and are committed to our core values of honesty, integrity, and treating each other with dignity and respect. In fact, developing talent and championing our culture have been global business priorities year in and year out. We believe this encourages many Associates to join us not just to find a job, but to build a career.
Inclusion and diversity have long been a priority at TJX, and we are continuing our journey of learning and growing.
The diversity of our Associates makes us a stronger Company and better able to serve our broad and diverse customer base around the world. We strive for an inclusive workplace where our Associates feel welcome when they walk through our doors; valued for their diversity of thought, background, and experience; and engaged with our mission to deliver great value to our customers every day. Our inclusion and diversity programming is grounded in the understanding that being inclusive means welcoming a range of differing backgrounds and perspectives and our decades-long, open door philosophy encourages our Associates to listen and be understanding. We embrace that our workforce encompasses people of different races, ethnicities, ages, sexual orientations, gender identities, abilities, experiences, religions, and much more, who come together to help move our business forward.
We do not tolerate discrimination or hate of any kind. We believe every one of us can play a part in helping to build a better, more inclusive Company. We invite you to visit the Inclusion and Diversity and Communities pages of our website to learn more about our approach and the initiatives we have underway.
