Diversity & Inclusions: Workplace

We invest in our employees' development but must also foster an inclusive environment in which they can thrive. Creating a workplace where everyone feels respected, trusted and empowered isn't easy but it is critical if we want to operate at the highest levels. Such a workplace fuels creativity and provides employees with a sense of pride.

Equal Employment Opportunity

It is PNC’s policy to provide equal employment opportunity without regard to race, color, religion, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, age, disability, veteran status, or any other basis protected by law. All aspects of our employment practices, including recruitment, selection, hiring, training, transfer, promotion, corrective action, compensation and benefits, conform to this policy. In addition, we go beyond legal requirements where appropriate to ensure that our decisions and actions reflect our corporate values.

While PNC does not publicly disclose incidents of alleged discrimination or related corrective action, which we consider to be confidential and proprietary, we do not permit, condone or tolerate unlawful discrimination, bias or harassment and take prompt corrective action to ensure a respectful workplace. 

Our corporate values include a commitment to diversity & inclusion, and all employees are expected to conduct themselves in a way that respects and values our differences. In alignment with our commitment to providing an inclusive and welcoming environment for all applicants, employees, contractors, vendors and clients, we make training, seminars and workshops available to all employees on the following topics:

• (dis)Ability awareness 
• Inclusive language 
• Inclusive onboarding 
• LGBTQ+ inclusion 
• Leveraging a diverse team 
• Managing generational differences 
• Religious expression in the workplace

Line of Business Councils

Our 15 Line of Business (LOB) Diversity & Inclusion (D&I) Councils focus on enhancing employee recruitment, engagement and development, and supporting our managers' development as inclusive leaders. All employees within a business or staff function are encouraged to participate in their council's programs.

EBRG Mentoring Program

Employees throughout PNC who participate in our EBRGs have access to a mentoring program that provides professional and personal development and support. The program has had a significant impact on our employees' growth, development and engagement by helping them navigate the organization, learn from the experiences of others and connect with leadership.

Unconscious Bias and Microbehaviors Training

We are committed to ensuring that people are in the right roles and have the opportunity to thrive in a workplace that values diverse talent. At the same time, we recognize that challenges, including unconscious bias and microbehaviors (small, subtle behaviors that can have great impact on people's feelings) exist and can impact both engagement and performance.

To help create awareness of both unconscious bias and microbehaviors, we offer a learning curriculum that equips participants to:

• Identify the filters and biases through which they view and interpret themselves and others
• Recognize personal biases and microbehaviors
• Examine the impact of biases and microbehaviors on decision making
• Determine how to navigate bias and microbehaviors while making hiring and development decisions
