Leveraging science, innovation, and collaboration, 3M helps advance progress in meeting global challenges like climate change, public health and safety, and environmental and community resilience.
We recognize the importance of fair access to science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education and careers, as well as to training and development in the skilled trades. Accessible opportunities in STEM and the skilled trades lead to stronger communities, a stronger 3M, and a brighter collective future. We also commit to advancing diversity and inclusion within our company and communities. Together with our partners, we will advance a resilient and sustainable future for all.
At 3M, we want our approximately 85,000 employees to focus on making an impact on the world and feel empowered to bring innovation into their work. As we build 3M for the future, strengthening our culture is a top priority.
Building and nurturing meaningful connections inside of 3M as well as with our local communities is fundamental to our sustainability strategy. We listen to and engage with communities to understand and identify ways to maximize our impact.
We will continue to advance our diversity and inclusion commitments in our work environments, business practices, and communities globally.
We've set ambitious goals within the Science for Community pillar of our Strategic Sustainability Framework.
