Employee Diversity

At AmeriHealth Caritas, our commitment to diversity starts with the employees we hire, and the internal culture of respect and inclusion we foster.

With thousands of employees across the nation and a multicultural headcount that makes up just over half of our total employees, we make it a priority to represent and reflect the communities we live and work in, and the members we serve.

As a company, we support internal diversity through:

  • Recruiting. We are an equal opportunity employer, and do not discriminate on the basis of age, race, ethnicity, gender, religion, sexual orientation, or disability.
  • Training. We offer a variety of training on topics such as cultural competence, health equities, and unconscious bias.
  • Associate resource groups (ARGs). Open to all employees, our ARGs offer additional opportunities for engagement, community service, and professional development. We currently have active ARGs for women, employees with disabilities, and veterans, with more on the way.
  • Professional development. Through programs like the Urban Leadership Forum (ULF), employees who are emerging leaders can build relationships, get support and inspiration to reach their goals, and make positive impacts on their communities.
