Hallmarks of Diversity & Inclusion (D&I) at Toyota

There are many ways Toyota has become a more diverse company that includes all races, genders, and ethnicities.

• Strong Values: One of the foundational pillars of Toyota is Continuous Improvement and Respect for People. This allows innovation through inclusion, respecting, valuing, and acknowledging a diverse workplace, which is what freedom is all about.
• D&I Mindset: Toyota and their Executive Diversity and Inclusion Council work closely with the Diversity Advisory Board to cultivate a diverse and inclusive mindset, especially when it comes to leadership. In fact, 33 percent of senior executives at Toyota also serve on the boards of multicultural organizations.
• Team Member-Driven: Employees at Toyota take pride in volunteering and assist in many organizations focused on helping LGBTQ+, minorities, women, veterans, and people with disabilities. More than 200 Toyota team members have become D&I Champions since 2018 as well, having completed a program that teaches how to combine diversity and inclusion in all departments.
• Business Partnerships: Toyota has been committed to changing D&I in the workplace and not just their own. The Toyota Opportunity Exchange has been running strong for over 30 years, helping diverse suppliers. They also spend more than $3 billion with certified minority and women-owned businesses annually.
