A Commitment to Diversity and Inclusion
United by a common purpose
Diversity and inclusion is not just an initiative at Travelers; it is at the core of who we are and how we take care of our customers, our communities and each other.
We share a commitment to embracing the power of our differences to continue to build an inclusive culture where voices are heard and experiences are valued. Our diverse perspectives help fuel innovation, connect with our communities and foster a greater sense of belonging.
We believe our 33,000 employees’ unique experiences and ideas strengthen us and continue to drive our success. As we build for the future, we must maintain our talent advantage by attracting and retaining the best employees from the broadest possible pool. For that reason, diversity and inclusion has always been a business imperative for us.

LAUREN YOUNG: The Travelers culture is collaborative, inclusive, challenging, yet supportive, and everyone is really here to make sure that you succeed. You want to make sure that you're engaging with folks who are different from you to help expand your worldview, broaden your horizons, and make sure that you are doing everything you possibly can to create an inclusive culture here.
Only then can we do our best work and grow as an organization. So it's really important no matter what level you are, what role you are, if you're a new joiner, if you are very tenured within the organization, all are welcome and there's so much you can learn.

JOHN C: Travelers enabled me to be authentic at work and it wasn't easy at first. I, for years, did not bring my authentic self. Being part of the diversity networks, it opened the door. And so I think that was really important for me to take advantage of that and then just be my true self at work.

LYNN M: Travelers has made it easy for me to volunteer within the community and also outside of the community just by nature of having the diversity networks, just attending and learning the various concerns and issues, it really makes you a better advocate, so that I can be the best version of myself to help others.
