At Fred Hutch, we believe that quality of life is essential to building a rewarding career — and achieving our shared mission of advancing breakthroughs and saving lives. It starts with a supportive and collaborative workplace culture for all of our employees, from researchers and lab technicians to IT specialists and electricians. It means going to work at a beautiful 15-acre lakeshore campus with state-of-the-art facilities, light-filled workspaces, tranquil courtyards and mountain views. Fred Hutch offers generous benefits that help our employees stay healthy and maintain a satisfying work-life balance.
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion are core Fred Hutch values that are integral to our work. We believe that every employee is responsible for co-creating an inclusive culture and climate that respects and engages individuals from every background and the communities they represent. Through the leadership of our Office of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion, our efforts are guided toward equity, inclusion, and anti-racism in our research, culture, workforce, and workplace.
Fred Hutch has three Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) that serve as a resource for employees by fostering a diverse, inclusive workplace aligned with organizational mission, values, goals, business practices, and objectives. ERGs are traditionally centered on specific issues and/or communities, usually the voice of communities that are less represented or empowered within the organization, or in the greater community. Hutch ERG’s have been catalysts for DEI efforts and progress, with Diversity Council contributing to this work for some twenty years!
Fred Hutch's Diversity Council is focused on giving a voice to racial and ethnic minorities, promoting employee engagement through diversity and inclusion educational initiatives, and celebrating successes through inclusive representation in our internal and external communications.
FHREE provides a space for LGBTQIA+ Fred Hutch employees for focused discussions and events that frequently intersect with race and other disparities equity work.
