Our People Make the Difference
Creating innovative packaging solutions that help make our planet a better place is no easy task. It takes a dedicated and talented group of people who not only share values but have the passion and drive to create change together.
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
At Graphic Packaging, diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) are principles that guide our teams, develop our leaders and create an environment that’s the right fit for our people, no matter where they work.
Employee resource groups (ERGs) are a vital part of our culture. Company-sponsored and employee-led, ERGs honor the diverse experiences within our global employee population. Each group sponsors events and initiatives to build awareness of unique perspectives, support our communities and provide a safe space for dialogue and increased understanding.
Recognition
Our employees go above and beyond their day-to-day jobs, whether it’s serving our communities, making our workplace safer, modeling our core values, or exhibiting growth behaviors. To recognize the most exceptional examples of this, each year we reward our “best of the best” employees across the globe with our Leadership and President’s Awards. Along with personal congratulations from our president and CEO, winners receive a monetary bonus and recognition throughout the company.
