Q: What does the Lab mean when it talks about Diversity?
A: Diversity is more than race, color, national origin, religion, sex, gender identity, physical or mental disability, marital status, age, sexual orientation, citizenship, or status as a veteran. Diversity also encompasses a wide variety of other differences, including work experience, parental status, educational background, geographic location, and much more. Managing diversity means actively promoting community and comfort at JLab.
The D&I Council is chartered and its members appointed, by the Director of the Laboratory. It is the primary body responsible for advising the Director and senior leadership on subjects related to Diversity and Inclusion.
The D&I Council's purview includes all activities in support of the following Lab goals:
