Until we all run on equal ground
The shoes and gear we develop, the experiences we create, and the partnerships we build should contribute to a more inclusive and accessible running community.

Workplace, runners, and run community
We believe in the power of a diverse running community that includes people of different races, ethnicities, national origins, abilities, genders, ages, sexual orientations, body types, and circumstances. We are pursuing practices that will create access to opportunity and a culture where everyone is welcomed and valued.

Our commitments*:
- Achieve at least 50% women representation at all levels of Brooks employees in Europe
- Achieve at least 25% female representation on director level
- Attain at least 40% female representation on managerial level
- Maintain at least 4.0 out of 5.0 Inclusive Culture Score on Brooks employee Cultural Strengths Survey
*All diversity, equity, and inclusion commitments apply to the EMEA only
Community impact
The run can do more than improve health — it can improve well-being. We hope to create this positive change by listening to and engaging with runners in their communities.
