What do you imagine from the word "diversity"? Schlumberger public web site states as follows;
One of our greatest strengths is the diversity of our workforce, with men and women of many nationalities and backgrounds working together and sharing common objectives.
Schlumberger does not have a 'nationality' which describes its culture, but operates in a truly global fashion throughout the world. As a company, we encourage fair employment practices worldwide and offer equal opportunities to all our employees regardless of race, color, age, sex, religion or national origin. We also try to take family considerations into account in any decisions about personnel matters or assignments.
Diversity is also driven by our customers, suppliers and shareholders who are increasingly global and diverse. They expect us to understand, respond and deliver services that meet their unique expectations. In order to meet and exceed these expectations, workplace, Gender, and Nationality Diversity are the key for our business.
Our nationality diversity is not only for recruiting, and also for our managers (see a chart, national diversity). It purely corresponds to one's ability and our business needs.
