We're always looking for ways to make life better – not only for our customers, but also for everyone working here. That's why we're taking steps to create an environment where we all acknowledge and embrace our differences and uniqueness, and listen to and value each other's views. When people feel cared for and listened to, they bring their best qualities to work, leading to better collaboration, communication, innovation and success. This is why we invest in building and fostering a culture of inclusion, as it is a key requirement to benefit from the diversity we bring.
We focus on improving the well-being and health of employees proactively and holistically, offering a range of professional services and peer-to-peer support programs that provide valuable help throughout the year and enable us to listen, learn and take steps to meet people where they are.
Based on what is impacting and affecting the health of our people, we focus on five areas of focus of well-being: Physical well-being; emotional well-being and mental health support; social well-being, which includes our career well-being and mentoring programs; and environmental well-being, health and safety.
Physical well-being
At Philips, we believe that a healthy mind in a healthy body contributes to a happier lifestyle. That’s why we offer subsidies and support for gym memberships, as well as cycle-to-work initiatives, and the opportunity to schedule walking meetings.
Emotional well-being
Your mental health matters just as much as your physical health. At Philips, you can talk in confidence to a psychologist or company social worker about any challenges you’re facing in both your private and professional life. We also offer workshops on how to cope with stress and build resilience.
Social well-being
We know that the foundation of any great career is the healthy relationships we build between our colleagues. Our employee-led networks (ERGs) play a big role in building inclusive communities and provide a forum for sharing experiences and making meaningful cultural connections.
Harnessing the power of together
At Philips, the way we care for each other, and embrace each other’s uniqueness, helps us understand what it takes to improve the lives of billions of everyday people from all around the world. When you join us, you get to be uniquely you. But you also get to be part of something more: A global community that’s passionate about making a real difference to people’s health and well-being.

Ready to do the work of your life to help the lives of others?
Our Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) are employee-led groups that play a crucial role in helping Philips foster an inclusive workplace. ERGs provide a safe space for employees who share a common characteristic or allies to make meaningful connections, develop career opportunities, expand skills, and support our Diversity, Inclusion and Well-being strategy. ERGs promote a sense of belonging and encourage dialogue, providing new ways to look at issues ranging from color and gender to neurodiversity and care-giving.
More than 10,000 employees are involved with the 12 ERGs we have currently. Maybe one (or more) is a place for you? Or maybe you'll help us build our next employee-led community.
