Our ambition is to ensure that every individual can reach their full potential in the Group.
Jane White Legrand Chief Diversity & Engagement OfficerConvinced that diversity drive innovation, performance, well-being and attractiveness, we have, for many years, focused on tools that promote inclusion.
Our ambition is to create a working environment in which every Legrand employee, whatever their difference, feels recognised and valued, so they can bring their skills to the table.
We are creating an inclusive working environment for all Legrand employees to make sure that every individual is in their place and feels their skills are valued. We take action against all forms of discrimination, and are committed to promoting diversity in all its forms, whether respecting professional equality, ethnic representation, integrating people with disabilities, intergenerational collaboration, the inclusion of LGBT+ people or even the integration of social, cultural and ethno-racial diversity.
We encourage gender diversity in every discipline. By offering men and women the same employment conditions, we aim to improve female representation throughout the company. We also undertake to guarantee professional equality in all our HR processes. We offer the same employment conditions upon hiring and are working to reduce the salary gaps.
We are also keen to diversify the profiles of the talents working within Legrand. To reflect better the diversity of the communities in which we live and work, we aim to increase the representation of under-represented populations. We are paying particular attention to the younger generations, especially in talent identification, and are trying to encourage experience sharing with more experienced colleagues.

At Legrand, supporting and encouraging diversity and inclusion is more than just words: it involves actions on the ground, that are concrete and measurable. Learn how we are living out our commitments.
Legrand relies on several internal inclusion networks. These networks include international networks such as Ellegrand or LegrandRainbow, as well as local networks like the Black Professional Network in the United States. All created at the initiative of Legrand employees, they cover a variety of diversity topics.
By signing up in 2022 to the UN’s standards to fight against discrimination towards LGBT+ people (UN Standards of Conduct for Business), Legrand has restated its commitment to the human rights of LGBT+ employees, customers and suppliers, and also to preventing and eliminating all forms of discrimination towards them in the workplace.
Since 2019, diversity has been part of the CSR criteria taken into account when selecting Legrand’s suppliers. Since 2022, the Group has specifically targeted suppliers working to promote diversity and inclusion; those with recognised inclusive company status, a label, a public policy or concrete action in this area.
In 2024, 22 new Legrand entities were awarded the GEEIS-Diversity (Gender Equality European & International Standard-Diversity) label, bringing to 60 the number of entities with the label worldwide. This distinction recognises the progress made by the Group over the years in terms of diversity, professional equality and inclusion.
