Associate Engagement and Inclusion

Welcome to our Community!

Our Valued Associates

An integral part of our Company’s success has been our belief that through working together we can accomplish something far greater than one could do alone. We will always strive to provide a workplace which embraces the unique qualities and perspectives of our associates and reflects the communities in which we operate and consumers we serve.

To help support an inclusive, and engaged workforce and workplace, we have voluntary associate-led groups that are specifically designed to support our efforts in building an environment that embraces associate engagement and inclusion. Our associates, who form the backbone of our 105-year-old company, are instrumental in our success.

Inclusion Councils

We have established company-wide inclusion councils: these councils bolster our inclusion efforts that reflect the company’s aspiration to create an inclusive and equitable workplace.

By establishing these councils, Perdue Farms is taking proactive steps to ensure that every employee’s voice is heard, and that their unique experiences and backgrounds are celebrated and leveraged to drive innovation and growth. Through these initiatives, Perdue Farms is not only championing inclusion within their own ranks but also setting an inspiring example for the industry as a whole.

Associate Resource Groups

At Perdue Farms, our six Associate Resource Groups play a crucial role in our commitment to associate engagement and inclusion. These groups, initiated and led by our dedicated associates who go the extra mile beyond their regular responsibilities, are instrumental in nurturing an inclusive environment. They facilitate the cultivation of a culture that values differences, bring attention to significant awareness topics and events within our teams, and actively contribute to both our communities and our business.
