DEIA Vision Statement
Jefferson Lab is committed to promoting a diverse, equitable, inclusive and accessible workplace for all employees and scientific users. We believe in fostering a psychologically safe culture in which everyone is respected and empowered to be their authentic self. We aim to build a sustainable workforce to promote innovation by attracting and retaining a diverse group of people to the lab and supporting their ongoing development.
Jefferson Lab is committed to fostering a culture of diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility internally, in the DOE and National Lab System, and in our community. Jefferson Lab defines DEIA as the following:
