Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) Disclosure

Diversity, equity, and inclusion at IDEXX

IDEXX is committed to creating a diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplace. In connection with our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), we are disclosing our EEO-1 survey data, representing U.S. employees as of October 2020. We note that our EEO-1 survey data presents demographic information in federally mandated job categories that differ from our internal organizational structure. We measure progress against our DEI strategy and objectives using different metrics and data points.

We also include data below regarding the gender, racial, and ethnic diversity among our workforce and leadership, as of October 2020, and our Board of Directors, as of October 2021. For more information regarding our DEI strategy and objectives, please see our 2020 Corporate Responsibility Report.

Notes

  1. APO is defined as Asia Pacific Region.

  2. EMEA is defined as Europe, Middle East, and Africa.
  3. Data regarding gender are based on self-identification by our global employees and use the traditional gender category of women (or female) to align with U.S. government reporting requirements. IDEXX deeply respects that gender is nonbinary, and reporting in this manner does not represent our and our Board members' position on this issue.
  4. Data regarding racial and ethnic representation are based on self-identification by our U.S. employees and our Board members only; racial and ethnic diversity is defined as African American/Black, Asian, Hispanic/Latinx, Middle Eastern/North African, and other. The percentages provided do not add up to 100% because some U.S. employees declined to specify race and/or ethnicity.
  5. Other is defined as American American Indian, Alaska Native, Native Hawaiian/Other Pacific Islander, and two or more races.
  6. Global Senior Leaders are employees in compensation grades considered Director or above.
  7. Global Senior Executives are employees in compensation grades considered Senior Vice President or above.
