Diversity
Diversity is a strategic business imperative essential to Allstate’s success in today’s marketplace.
A Competitive Advantage
We aggressively pursue diversity in our workforce and our workplace, challenging ourselves to be appropriately represented by women and people of color in our general employee population, agency owners and within our leadership ranks; the percentage of procurement dollars spent with companies owned by minorities and women; our customer experience; our multi-cultural marketing efforts; our inclusive work environment and ultimately, our business results.
Workforce Mission
Our Workforce Diversity Mission is to sustain an effective organization that drives a high-performance culture, which in turn enables higher productivity, higher morale, more innovation, collaboration and risk taking. Our policies, procedures and programs are designed to promote inclusion, work/life balance, dignity and respect, commitment to appropriate representation and leveraging differences to maximize innovation and creativity.
Allstate aims to attract professionals who collectively embrace an inclusive value system that leverages diversity, equal opportunity, talent development, lifelong learning and work/life balance. Allstate’s workplace diversity strategy helps us attract and retain the best talent, drive high performance, provide tailored service and products to a diverse customer base and strengthen our corporate brand in the marketplace and labor market.

More than 40 percent of officers and managers are women and nearly 20 percent come from one of five minority groups. And of the nearly 13,000 Allstate agencies, nearly 40 percent are women and more than 20 percent are minorities.
