Leadership
Global diversity and inclusion at Kodak is a journey, and we made
considerable progress in 2002. The company continues its
commitment to creating a fair and diverse workplace in all its
operations around the world. The Global Diversity Leadership
Team, comprised of thirty-four global leaders, fulfilled its
responsibility for launching the company's comprehensive
integrated diversity strategy. This strategy emerged from our vision
of an inclusive environment in which our employees understand
and leverage diversity to achieve Kodak's business objectives and
maximize the potential of individuals and the organization.
Our journey of inclusion is guided in part by a blue-ribbon
External Diversity Advisory Panel, whose seven members bring
nationally acknowledged credentials to the dialogue of diversity.
This panel successfully concluded its inaugural year with
recommendations to the company's board of directors that
supported Kodak's long-term plan. The March 2002 launch of
Kodak's Resolution Support Services (RSS) process was another
diversity milestone. The RSS process provides an alternative
method to help resolve certain disputes between employees and
the company. The process helps drive an environment that fosters
high levels of productivity, innovation, employee satisfaction and
business performance.
Kodak is Committed to Diversity as a Workforce Strategy
Kodak does business in an enormously competitive global
environment. Our customers and markets span many cultures and
backgrounds, and so must our employees. This philosophy guides
recruitment and retention efforts at Kodak.
In 2002, despite workforce reductions and continuing global
economic uncertainties, the company maintained its diverse
domestic workforce demographics for women and people of color.
