Committed to Equality

At Herman Miller, we believe that an inclusive environment means everyone is encouraged to bring their whole self, no matter who they are or whom they love. Here are some of the ways we value LGBTQ+ inclusion and diversity at Herman Miller and beyond.

Our Pride is Showing

For 15 years running, Herman Miller earned a perfect score on the Human Rights Campaign Corporate Equality Index as a “Best Place to Work for LGBTQ Equality.” We’re committed to building a place where all of our employees feel welcome and valued.

Championing from Within

Members of our LGBTQ+ Equity Team and their allies celebrate the LGBTQ+ community and advocate for equality and inclusion in the workplace. The team also engages with local communities to promote and support LGBTQ+ initiatives.

Supporting Our Communities

Our belief in LGBTQ+ equality extends to the communities in which we live, work, and serve. Along with Herman Miller Cares, our foundation, we support many nonprofits and organizations that advance the LGBTQ+ community.

  • A group of people, where each person is dressed in a different color are lined up to represent a spectrum of colors for Pride.
  • Two people talking to each other at an event with others mingling to one side.
  • A man in a white shirt speaks into a microphone.
  • Five people pose together and smile in front of a Pride banner.
