Diversity & Inclusion

The global nature of ConocoPhillips reflects diversity and inclusion in everything we do. Our workforce represents the international communities in which we live and work, bringing together talented people from a variety of backgrounds and experiences. Valuing everyone’s contribution isn’t just something we talk about. It’s what we put into practice each day.

In the SPIRIT of valuing all people, ConocoPhillips believes that diverse opinions, ideas and perspectives are what fuels innovation throughout our company and we reinforce our belief through training for employees and supervisors. We have a reputation for creating an environment where people with diverse backgrounds can succeed and actively engage diverse applicants through our outreach partnerships and activities. Everyone’s contributions are valued here. We all play a role in giving our company a competitive business advantage.

In our partnership with campuses, we contribute to various student chapters and multicultural, military and disability programmes; not just to pursue talent that aligns with our values, but also as a good citizen in the communities of which we are a part.

Consistent with our focus on excellence, ConocoPhillips continues to discover and develop best practices in diversity and inclusion – for the good of our enterprise, our employees, our vendors and our communities.
