Global Diversity and Inclusion
Advancing as One Wabtec. Committed to empowering inclusivity for all.
Diversity and Inclusion (D&I) are a fundamental part of our identity, and we are committed to staying accountable to consistent and continued progress.
Our commitment to accountability and progress is rooted in our Values, and we are relentlessly pursuing our vision of inclusion and belonging for everyone. We embrace the infinite differences our people bring to Wabtec including gender, race, ethnicity, veteran status, disability status, LGBTQIA+ identification, and beyond. We are who we are as a company because of the valuable contributions individuals make to our highly innovative and mission-driven culture. Whether you’re looking to join our team, have been here for years, or are a customer or partner, your Wabtec experience should leave you feeling understood and valued for who you are. We will work tirelessly until everyone belongs.
This is a continued and evolving journey: we’re increasing representation, creating more inclusive hiring and talent management practices, and elevating our culture to help each and every employee live our Embrace Diversity Value.
Commitment to Our People
Wabtec’s employees are a core strength of our global operations. One of our core values is People First, and we continuously support our valuable workforce by engaging with our team members in a responsible and fair manner. We honor the combined skills, knowledge, and diverse backgrounds and experiences they bring to our organization. Our employees stand behind our Embrace Diversity value, and provide meaningful contributions to ensure our progress towards a diverse and inclusive culture.
Wabtec supports our employees’ right to freedom of association and promotes strong dialogue and engagement with labor representatives where trade unions or other forms of employee representation are present. Through our collective bargaining activities, we fully comply with the labor management laws and standards in every country where we operate. At the same time, we extend the same respect and fair treatment to all of our non-represented employees.
Our employee relationships are the foundation of our strong reputation, and we continuously strive to cultivate a trusted, safe, and respectful workplace environment where our employees feel comfortable raising concerns and contributing their ideas.

Employee Resource Groups
Fostering a workplace where employees treat each other with respect and dignity.
Our global Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) are led and managed by Wabtec employees. These committed employees work to foster a workplace where employees treat each other with respect and dignity, where diverse perspectives are sought after, and where everyone feels safe. Our ERGs support a strong sense of community for members and focus on attracting, promoting, retaining, and developing ERG participants.
These groups play an active role in personal and professional development across all phases of an employee’s career and provide a forum to build strong relationships and allies through networking, learning, and support. ERGs hold events with company leadership, manage formal mentoring programs, sponsor career training geared toward their members, and play a role in giving back to the communities where we work and serve.
Our ERGs are open to all employees, whether they identify with an affinity group or as allies and represent a wide range of differences within our organization.
