Fifth Third has been recognized by DiversityComm Magazine as a 2024 Top Diverse Employer for its excellence in outreach and accessibility to minority groups, veterans, women, individuals with disabilities, and the LGBTQ+ community.

“At Fifth Third, we aspire to create an intentionally inclusive, diverse and thriving community,” said Chief Inclusion Officer Stephanie A. Smith. “We strive to provide an environment in which each employee feels valued, respected and understood, and we pride ourselves in bringing our authentic selves and our best thinking into the workplace.”

Fifth Third’s inclusive employment practices include a robust network of nine Business Resource Groups that empower employees to advance inclusion efforts and to access development opportunities, support business solutions and get involved in the community.

“Creating a culture of belonging and connection where employees feel cared for and valued is critical to our success and ingrained in our core values,” said Chief Human Resources Officer Nancy Pinckney. “We believe that inclusion creates the opportunity for all to thrive.”
