Valuing Differences at Genzyme
At Genzyme, an important foundation of our shared vision is a diverse workforce. Diversity is what our business is about: in the patients we serve, the products we produce, the communities where we work, and the people who contribute to our success. Diversity is expressed in the thinking, work styles, and backgrounds of people who are dedicated to the objectives and outcomes we seek to achieve.
We serve a global population, and inclusion is an integral part of our business practices. In over 30 countries worldwide, Genzyme employees with diverse talents, languages, experiences, points of view, genders, physical abilities, and cultural backgrounds develop creative solutions to today’s unmet medical needs, serving patients in over 80 countries. We are committed to fostering a collaborative working environment to meet this goal. Valuing differences is an expression of our ongoing dedication to serving every patient.
