Inclusion & Diversity

Different together.

At Apple, we’re not all the same. And that’s our greatest strength. We draw on the differences in who we are, what we’ve experienced, and how we think. Because to create products that serve everyone, we believe in including everyone.

Data as of December 2018. To align with U.S. government reporting requirements, data on this website uses the traditional gender categories of male and female. Apple deeply respects that gender is not binary; reporting in this manner should not represent our position on the issue. Underrepresented minorities: groups whose representation in tech has been historically low — Black, Hispanic, Native American, and Native Hawaiian & Other Pacific Islander. Data supplied by the People team at Apple. Totals may not add up to 100 percent due to rounding.

The population of employees whose race or ethnicity was undeclared decreased from 6 percent in 2015 to less than 1 percent in 2016 and continues to remain below 1 percent in 2017. This decrease came as a result of stronger internal processes and employees properly identifying themselves. Because the majority of our previously undeclared employees identified as White, the decrease had no impact on the representation rates for any other group. Other includes Native American and Native Hawaiian & Other Pacific Islander. Data as of July 2017.

Our most recently filed Federal Employer Information Report EEO-1, representing employees as of December 2018, is available for download below. We make the document publicly available, but it’s not how we measure our progress. The EEO-1 has not kept pace with changes in industry. We believe the information we report elsewhere on this site is a more accurate reflection of our progress toward diversity.
