First company to receive Move-level certification twice from
EDGE, the leading global assessment and business certification for
gender and intersectional equity
IFF (NYSE: IFF) today announced that EDGE—the leading global
assessment and business certification for gender and intersectional
equity—has recertified the company as EDGE Move level globally. The
marks the first—and currently the only—time a company has earned
this level of recognition twice. The company also added an EDGEplus
to its certification for its commitment to broader workplace
diversity and intersectional issues. The assessment encompassed 27
countries, giving IFF the distinction of having the largest number
of EDGE-certified countries at one time.
Earning certification entails a rigorous third-party review of
gender representation, pay equity, the effectiveness of policies
and practices and the inclusiveness of an organization’s culture.
As part of the assessment, a global survey is also distributed to
employees to gauge perception of gender equity in the
workplace.
“We’re very proud of this achievement, especially because it
follows our team doubling in size after our 2021 merger,” said
Frank Clyburn, CEO, IFF. “But even as we celebrate this
recognition, we focus on the opportunities that EDGE has identified
to help make IFF a fairer and more inclusive workplace, achieving
greater gender parity and representation across our global
footprint. Our team is fully committed to furthering our
progress.”
“In 2020, IFF was the first company to be globally certified at
the EDGE Move level, and today’s announcement is another first,”
said Aniela Unguresan, founder, EDGE Certified Foundation. “IFF’s
achievements demonstrate that putting gender and intersectional
equity at the heart of their business leads to visible and credible
progress.”
Women at IFF represent 36.4% of leadership, with no
statistically relevant gender pay gap in favor of men in any of the
27 assessed countries. In 2022, the Company advanced efforts to
create a fairer and more inclusive place to work. This includes
introducing a Global Parental Leave policy, which provides a
minimum of 16 weeks paid leave for all new or continuing parents
following the birth, surrogacy or adoption of a child. The Company
has also expanded the size and scope of activities of the Women@IFF
employee resource group.
“At IFF, we live out our deep commitment to diversity, equity
and inclusion, embedding practices and policies that support gender
and intersectional equity,” said Deborah Borg, IFF chief human
resources officer and chief diversity & inclusion officer.
“Through assessments like EDGE and the guidance they provide, we
can measure our progress and take intentional, measured steps to
impact workforce representation, and ensure IFF remains a great
place to work.”
