ASME Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Statement

Diversity and Inclusion is of paramount importance to ASME. We are continuously and tirelessly building and nurturing a culture of inclusiveness. Experience and data have shown us that different ideas, perspectives, and backgrounds create a stronger, more creative work environment that delivers robust solutions. ASME’s inclusive culture encourages, supports, and celebrates the diverse voices of our employees, volunteers, customers, and communities.

In our ongoing work toward increasing diversity and ensuring inclusion across the Society, we adhere to three guiding principles, which are exemplified by our leaders, staff, volunteers, members, teams, partners, and the communities we serve.
