DIVERSITY
At RadioShack, diversity development is not a program or a system. It is a way of life that represents a long-term investment in our future. We are committed to integrate diversity into our people programs and business practices, to consistently and fairly measure, assess and communicate our progress, and to build and grow a diverse workforce that reflects and supports the families, neighborhoods and communities we serve.
Customer, employee and vendor...you're
welcome at RadioShack!
RadioShack embraces America's equal opportunity ideal.
Our affirmative action/equal opportunity commitment helps our stores,
distribution and service centers, and offices reflect the diversity
found in the many neighborhoods we serve across America.
As an equal opportunity employer devoted to diversity in the workplace, we recruit, hire, train, promote and compensate without regard to race, national origin, sex, age, religion, sexual orientation, disability or socio-economic status. Also, our sensitivity policy places a high emphasis on the treatment of our customers by offering them a comfortable shopping environment.
Our field and corporate recruiters regularly visit colleges and universities with predominantly ethnic or diverse student populations. We also announce career opportunities with our company in publications and Web sites that target minority, women and ethnic audiences.
In addition to our commitment to workplace diversity, RadioShack believes minority vendors and contractors enlarge the pool of qualified service suppliers. For example, RadioShack's corporate office's facilities department considers minority status as a competitive edge when hiring contractors.
RadioShack is involved in communities
across America.
RadioShack
is a founding partner company of the North
Texas BOLD Initiative — a diversity leadership recruitment
program. The organization's goal is to identify, mentor and/or recruit
minorities and women for middle management and senior management positions.
RadioShack believes that a strong diverse workforce is important to
our future success. Through our affiliation with BOLD we continue to
tap into the richness of our country's diversity and enhance our reputation
as a desirable place for diverse management talent to live and work.
The Dallas/Fort Worth Chapter of the National Society of Hispanic MBAs (NSHMBA) has honored RadioShack for the company's support of the organization. The NSHMBA helps foster Hispanic leadership through graduate management education and professional development. The society works to prepare Hispanics for leadership positions throughout the United States, so that they can provide the cultural awareness and sensitivity vital in the management of the nation's diverse workforce.
The Texas Governor's Committee on People With Disabilities has recognized RadioShack's efforts to accommodate employees with disabilities. We actively work with city and state programs to recruit persons from the Texas Department of Mental Health and Mental Retardation, Goodwill Industries and the Fort Worth Mayor's Committee on Persons With Disabilities.
