Cummins is receiving kudos for its diversity in the workplace. DiversityInc has named the Columbus-based power supplier as one of the Top 50 Companies for Diversity for a 12th consecutive year. Cummins ranked 12th on the 2018 annual list, which included more than 1,000 participating companies.

“The more we grow and expand globally, the more important it is that we attract and develop employees from around the world who have the knowledge and skills to work effectively in the markets in which we do business,” said Kelley Bertoux Creveling, Executive Director – Global Diversity and Right Environment. “We’re at our best when we fully include those unique perspectives, experiences and languages – truly leveraging the power of diversity and inclusion.”

The DiversityInc Top 50 list, issued yearly since 2001, recognizes the nation’s top companies for diversity and inclusion management. These companies excel in such areas as hiring, retaining and promoting women, minorities, people with disabilities, LGBT and veterans. The DiversityInc Top 50 ranking is based on data obtained through organizations that fill out a survey.

This year in addition to making the Top 50 list, Cummins was named to three of DiversityInc’s specialty lists:

• #9 for Top Companies for Supplier Diversity
• #7 for Top Companies for Executive Women
• #20 for Top Companies for Executive Diversity Councils
