Coming Out at Work: Our Stories

Coming Out at Work: Our Stories

[MUSIC PLAYING. ]
ANDRE: What motivated me to come out? I think not being true to myself was not an option.
[TEXT] We asked our Associates about their “coming out” experience at work…
ANDRE: I actually came out in my interview. When I was asked where I see myself in the future-- in the near future, five years from now, and that's an integral part of who I am because I really, really want to be a father. And being a gay man, I do have to jump through a couple additional hoops to accomplish that.
CARMELA: I came out at work because I wanted to be able to share with, not only my coworkers, but even with my clients, the love that I have with my partner, my wife. It should not impact and will not impact the work and-- the performance of work that I provide.
JAMES: I had friends who worked in ADP already who were also members of the LGBTQ community who could really talk to my team and the people that I'd be working closely with and kind of filled them in on what type of person I was. So going into a new company was really easy, and that conversation was really easy.
MARIANA: How seriously ADP takes the zero-tolerance policy for any type of discrimination in the work environment. This, for sure, encouraged me to slowly start including my wife's name into conversations with my team in a natural way until I came out completely to everyone.
TONDREA: I'm not sure I technically had a coming out experience here at ADP, and the reason being is that I had already been out for several years-- both personally and professionally-- before I came to ADP. But I will say this, that as soon as I walked into the doors of ADP, I could tell almost immediately that I could be authentically me and that this place was a place that celebrated diverse points of view.
LACEY: It was after I had all of the support and love from the members of the community within ADP, my fellow members of ADP Pride, they really gave me the strength that I needed to come out in my personal life. So really, if you think about it, I came out to my ADP family before I came out to folks in my personal life. So I think that's a testament to the culture that we have at ADP.
LEONARDO: And when I was talking with my manager, she asked me, what would be something in the company that would make a big difference for me to take a decision to work for a company? And I said that diversity would be very important, because I'm gay. And since then, it was not necessary to start any other conversation. Also, with my teammates. So it was very natural, my coming out experience.

ADP Client Service and Implementation - Diversity Equity and Inclusion

[MUSIC PLAYING]
[LOGO: ADP, Always Designing for People]
RABEYA: My parents are from Bangladesh, and I am first generation here.
JEN: So personally my mom was an immigrant from Germany.
NEWSY: I've never felt like I've had to hide who I am, I'm very proud of being born in the Dominican Republic.
DEREK: There's definitely diversity, equity, and inclusion at ADP. I am able to be myself, so when I come into work, I feel comfortable. I don't have to put on an act and then change that once I leave.
JADA: I feel like I can 100% be who I am. I feel like I'm accepted 100% completely and totally. When I walk through those doors, I know that they're going to see me for who I am.
RABEYA: My managers, my senior leaders are always talking about how we can do more to help everyone feel included. I remember once it was at the end of Ramadan we have a holiday Eid, and I took the day off for Eid, and then the next day when I came in my coworkers had the whole spread of different food, and they had little signs that said Eid Mubarak. Knowing that my coworkers care about my background and my religion feels like home, it feels like family.
NEWSY: Diversity, equity, and inclusion at ADP is something that's taken very seriously. It's not just something that we do to check a box. I was selected to be part of a development program that lasted a full year, and this development program was specifically for multicultural associates. So, ADP wanted to make sure that we had the tools, and the mentorship, and sponsorship, and training needed, in order to be prepared to become people leaders. That in itself just shows me the dedication that ADP has to diversity, equity, and inclusion.
JEN: ADP really does focus on making sure that no one person or group feels undervalued or underrepresented in any way, and they want you to feel a sense of belonging. Different cultures, experiences, mindsets, even self-identifiers are welcomed, they're celebrated, but they're also respected.

The value of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion at ADP

[SPEECH]
BOB LOCKETT: Hi. Bob Lockett, Chief Diversity and Talent Officer at ADP.
[DESCRIPTION]
Bob sits in a lobby facing us.
[SPEECH]
BOB: Diversity, equity, and inclusion is really important at ADP because it defines who we are as an organization. We have a value of each person counts. And the value of diversity, equity, and inclusion means that you can bring your true authentic self to work.
Our vision of DEI at ADP is that we want our associate population to be reflective of the communities in which we operate and the clients that we serve. And that's on a global basis. So, we need the talent from those local communities. Now, we also have a very clear and defined mission when it comes to DEI. That is, we want to embed DEI principles and practices into ADP’s business ecosystem.
