Testimonials from ASML BIPOC community members“As an African American woman and an engineer, I’m really proud to work at a company that is inclusive.”
“I am really proud of my Hispanic roots and it is wonderful to be part of a company who encourages us to educate our colleagues on our rich and colorful culture.”
“ASML truly values each person for their unique contribution, and places ‘care’ as one of its core company values. In my time here, I have witnessed that each one of us is trying hard to live up to that value by acting respectfully and responsibly toward each other.”
“Being a chair of ASML’s BIPOC employee network, SHADES, is very meaningful to me. I have learned so much over the past few years, and have made friends with people of all backgrounds, age groups, and genders.”
ASML recognizes Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Black History Month, Asian American & Pacific Islander Heritage Month, Juneteenth and Hispanic Heritage Month through employee experiences and educational opportunities across the US.
Our SHADES network also creates a space for employees to recognize and share cultural observances that are important to them, such as Diwali, Eid, Hannukkah, Lunar New Year, Mid-Autumn Festival, and Ramadan.
