We Are People Driven

Seagate adheres to the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, the International Labor Organization core labor principles, and the RBA Code of Conduct.

Our human rights policy demonstrates our commitment to preserve, protect, and promote the fundamental rights of employees. This document, published in Chinese, English, Malay, and Thai, is available to all employees, and is included in our annual policy acknowledgement program; is posted at our sites; and is included in our annual policy acknowledgment program.

Building our talent in-house is a key component of Seagate’s people strategy. Through Seagate’s employee engagement program, workers can build skills, gain experience, and empower themselves through mentoring and coaching, e-learning opportunities, self-paced training, on-the-job training, and other strategic internal programs that cover topics ranging from leadership and technical skills to health, safety, and the environment.

These employee-led communities provide a safe space for discussion, connection, networking, and professional development. With over 4000 global members representing 10 ERGs and 30 local chapters as of FY2024, our ERGs play a vital role in building a culture where all employees feel secure, respected, and valued. All employees may join any ERG.

The health and safety of Seagate employees, contractors, and visitors is important to us, which is why: 

• Seagate locations and work activities are covered under health and safety management systems.
• All manufacturing sites are ISO 45001 certified. 
• Our global health and safety standards, as well as our accompanying management systems, frequently go beyond country or industry-level guidelines.
   

Our Environment, Health, Safety and Sustainability (EHS&S) Policy reinforces Seagate’s commitment to a safe workplace. This policy, along with site initiatives and training programs, supports the active collaboration, consultation, and participation of employees and other stakeholders, such as safety representatives, agency temps, and contractors. This empowers every worker to actively identify and eliminate hazards, anonymously report concerns, incidents, and near misses, and to exercise the “stop work authority” without reprisal.

Our global Healthy Journeys wellness program seeks to educate, encourage, and support our employees as they work on achieving their health and wellness goals. Globally, all employees have equal access to the programs offered through Healthy Journeys. To enable easy access to our wellbeing resources and information, we established a global resource center in FY2024. Additionally, our EAPs offer counseling services and a wealth of information on personal and emotional issues, family, relationships, work, and financial/legal advice. All employees are encouraged to reach out to their local EAP for free and confidential counseling.
