Diversity at National Semiconductor

National Semiconductor takes pride in being a global company with a diverse employee base. Being a global company, with products designed, developed, manufactured and sold around the world, helps to shape our unique culture.

Equal Opportunity Employment

We recognize the value and importance of diversity in the workplace. Our policy is to provide and promote equal employment opportunities for all applicants and employees. National recruits, hires, trains, rewards and promotes people in all job classifications without regard to race, color, age, religion, gender, national origin, disability, marital or veteran status or sexual orientation. National strictly prohibits unlawful discrimination, harassment and/or retaliation and remains legally compliant in all regions in which we operate.

Affirmative Action

National is committed to attracting a diverse pool of talent so the company may select the best candidates for openings at all levels within our organization. In the U.S. we develop affirmative action plans annually to promote these efforts. We reach out to a diverse group of talented people from a broad spectrum of organizations and communications, such as:

The Society of Women Engineers (SWE)

The National Association of Black Engineers (NSBE)

Math Engineering Science Achievement (MESA)

The Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers (SHPE)

Diversity Awareness

Embracing diversity enables a culture of success and promotes a fair and respectful workplace. We provide diversity awareness education and training programs which underscore our beliefs in respecting cultural differences as a key element in working together successfully as a global team.
