Over the past year, The Container Store has made significant strides in our diversity, equity, and inclusion journey and we all remain committed to doing the necessary work to be a company where there are equitable opportunities for all. One of our four DE&I guiding principles is to ensure there is leadership accountability and engagement, and we’re proud to announce that our CEO, Satish Malhotra has signed the CEO Action Pledge for Diversity & Inclusion.
“It is our responsibility as leaders to ensure our companies foster a diverse, equitable and inclusive workplace,” Satish said. “Therefore, I am thrilled to sign the CEO Action for Diversity and Inclusion pledge on behalf of The Container Store. Together we will pursue equal opportunities for all.”
By taking this pledge, The Container Store has committed to a specific set of actions to cultivate a trusting environment where all ideas are welcomed, and employees feel comfortable and empowered to have discussions about diversity and inclusion. These commitments include unconscious bias education, working with other companies to develop best practices, sharing DE&I plans with our board of directors, as well as implementing accountability systems to track our progress.
