Employment Opportunity Statement (US and Puerto Rico)

It is the policy of MiniMed to provide equal employment opportunity (EEO) to all persons regardless of age, color, national origin, citizenship status, physical or mental disability, race, religion, creed, gender, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity and/or expression, genetic information, marital status, familial status, membership or activity in a local human rights commission, status with regard to public assistance, veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by federal, state, or local law. In addition, MiniMed will provide reasonable accommodations for qualified individuals with disabilities. 

MiniMed will not allow any form of retaliation against individuals who make good faith reports of alleged violations of this policy, or who cooperate in MiniMed's investigation of such reports, even if the reports do not reveal any wrongdoing. MiniMed seeks to foster an inclusive environment for all employees. Our programs are designed to comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws, directives and regulations and cover all human resource actions including employment, compensation, benefits, training, education, tuition aid, transfers, promotions, and social/recreational programs; and ensure that all employment decisions are based only on valid job requirements. 

Responsibility

Wilma Carmona (wilma.i.carmona@medtronic.com), Sr Director Global HR Compliance, is responsible for ensuring that the principle of equal employment opportunity is understood and followed. All members of management must be familiar with this policy, must fully support it, and are responsible for applying these principles in good faith. All employees are responsible for conduct consistent with MiniMed's Global Inclusion and EEO Policy and are expected to demonstrate respect for all co-workers.

MiniMed posts this statement to inform applicants and employees of MiniMed's commitment to equal opportunity in employment. Any employee or applicant may inspect information related to our EEO program, including any required state and federal reporting obligations, during normal business hours.
