WINDSOR, Conn., February 22, 2021 – Talcott Resolution, a leading strategic partner for the insurance industry, joins the growing coalition pledging to advance diversity and inclusion in the workplace. Peter Sannizzaro, President and Chief Executive Officer, is committing himself, and Talcott Resolution, to advance diversity and inclusion in the workplace.
“At Talcott Resolution, we celebrate the diversity of our people and the perspectives they bring,” said Sannizzaro. “We are committed to fostering an environment where all individuals are safe, valued, respected, and treated equally and fairly. I am reaffirming my commitment to creating a company that’s reflective of Talcott Resolution’s values and am committed to racial equality.”
Since becoming an independent insurance company in 2018, Talcott Resolution has built an increasingly inclusive culture, already establishing a strong foundation through one of its core values, “Respect for Others,” and recognizing the importance of empowering its people to share their unique life experiences.
Through the company’s leadership-sponsored, cross-functional Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Council, Talcott Resolution has committed to promote awareness and knowledge, advocate for change, inspire dialogue, and support our communities.
Talcott Resolution is one of over 100 companies in the insurance industry that have signed the pledge. By joining together to tackle this critical societal issue, we hope to foster more diverse and inclusive workplaces in this industry.
