People

 

Our People Promise

Caring for people is who we are today and who we’ve been for over 100 years.

We started small. Just a single mill in North Carolina, but we had big ambitions. Now, more than a century later, we’re global across more than 30 countries and 50,000+ associates, designing, making and marketing our clothes. But people are still the center of our company.

Not just the people we serve, but the people we are. Every member of our associate community is supported, encouraged and empowered. From providing safe, rewarding jobs with competitive wages and benefits to valuing and celebrating our diversity – it’s all about being the kind of company where people genuinely come first and there are opportunities for all.

And doing what’s right. We set high ethical standards both for us and the people we work with. Through large-scale community support programs, we’re able to give back to the communities behind our business. And we set the goal to contribute to improving the lives of at least ten million people by 2030. It’s a tall order, but we’re going to do it. And we’re making great progress already.
