BASF has been named one of Canada's Best Diversity Employers for the second consecutive year. This award recognises BASF for its employee-centric programs and ongoing commitment to fostering a diverse, equitable and inclusive workplace.

Mediacorp, the nation's largest publisher of employment periodicals, cited BASF for its noteworthy diversity and inclusiveness programs, which create a sense of true belonging in the workplace and drives a culture where employees feel valued, respected, and supported. These include access to 13 employee resource and development groups and BASF’s mental health and wellness support programs.

BASF has a Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Council that serves as a critical strategic sounding board and champion for best practices in diversity, equity and inclusion while providing executive sponsorship and steering for its employee resource groups.

"At BASF, diversity isn't just a goal; it's our driving force for excellence and a catalyst for innovation, growth, and inclusivity," said Apala Mukherjee, president of BASF Canada. "This award is a testament to the collective efforts of our team, who bring their unique backgrounds and perspectives to BASF and continue to champion inclusivity as a part of our culture."
