Lumenalta earns DEI Workplace Certification from Diversity for Social Impact for its commitment to global talent support and development

[NEW YORK, NY/May 23, 2024] Lumenalta, a leading innovator in the technology sector, is proud to announce that it has received the DEI Workplace Certification from Diversity for Social Impact, a global leader in diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) standards. This certification recognizes Lumenalta’s commitment to fostering a diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplace environment.

The DEI Workplace Certification is awarded to organizations that demonstrate excellence in creating and maintaining an inclusive culture, promoting equitable opportunities, and supporting diversity at all levels. The certification process involves a rigorous assessment of an organization’s DEI policies, practices, and outcomes.

Lumenalta has long been committed to DEI as a core value and a strategic priority. The company’s DEI initiatives are embedded in every aspect of its operations, from recruitment and talent development, to employee resource groups and community engagement, to customer relations.

“Lumenalta strives to create the conditions for everyone's individual success and is committed to fostering an environment where everyone has equal opportunities to thrive. Our DEI Program is designed to embed these principles into the company’s culture, policies, and everyday practices, promoting a respectful and inclusive workplace for all” says Michelle McFarland, COO.

With 60% of its executive leadership team being women, Lumenalta exemplifies its commitment to gender diversity. This representation not only influences critical initiatives and decision-making but also serves as an inspiration for aspiring female leaders within the tech industry.

Francell Steyn, Recruitment Manager at Lumenalta, remarked, “Lumenalta actively supports women in tech, standing out from many companies where leadership is male-dominated. A recent event highlighted women who had risen to management, reflecting Lumenalta’s commitment to gender equality. Across all departments, Lumenalta fosters camaraderie among women and values every employee’s contributions, which drives the company’s success and makes it truly special.”

Since its inception, Lumenalta has operated entirely remotely, offering diverse and challenging roles that allow employees from anywhere in the world to build fulfilling careers. This remote-first approach not only broadens the talent pool, enhancing diversity and inclusion, but also supports parents and individuals with limited ability to commute, ensuring they have equal opportunities to thrive in their careers.

Lumenalta’s commitment to employee growth is reflected in its comprehensive career coaching, leadership training, and skills advancement courses. These initiatives ensure equitable opportunities for professional development, regardless of an employee’s background, demographic, orientation, or ability.

Lumenalta supports multiple Employee Resource Groups (ERGs), including Culture Coaching, that provide a platform for employees from various backgrounds to connect, share experiences, and advocate for their communities.

Lori Parrish, Sr. Director of Strategic Business Development at Lumenalta, emphasized, “At Lumenalta, we prioritize diversity policies in hiring and advancement, established unconscious bias training, recognize and reward women leaders and employees, provide flexible and remote work policies with our ‘freedom’ culture, and provide holistic coaching. Combined, these initiatives make it possible for every employee to have a seat at the table.”

Receiving the DEI Workplace Certification from Diversity for Social Impact is a significant milestone for Lumenalta, validating its continuous efforts to cultivate a workplace where diversity and inclusion are not just goals but integral components of its DNA.

“We are deeply honored to receive this certification,” said Kuty Shalev, CEO of Lumenalta. “Our commitment to DEI is not just about meeting standards but about setting them. We believe that diversity drives innovation, and we are dedicated to maintaining an environment where everyone, regardless of their role or background, has the opportunity to thrive.”
