There is a spirit of timelessness imbued into everything we create at Ralph Lauren — a spirit that extends to how we think about our role in protecting the environment and leaving a lasting, positive impact on society. That’s why our citizenship and sustainability strategy, Design the Change, is woven into all that we do – from concept and design to how we show up in the communities where we operate. As part of this, today we are proud to share our progress in our FY21 Global Citizenship & Sustainability Report, including: - Our new goal to achieve net zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2040; - Taking greater accountability by tying ESG metrics with executive compensation; and - Increasing our transparency by reporting expanded workforce diversity, climate impact and factory disclosure data.

At this time last year, Ralph Lauren joined our nation and the world in a long-overdue reckoning with racism. One year later, our Chairman & Chief Creative Officer Ralph Lauren and President & CEO Patrice Louvet shared an update in an open letter with our teams on our steadfast commitment to becoming a wholly equitable workplace and a champion for diversity and inclusion in the world. “The next chapter for our Company won’t be defined by any single product or brand campaign we create – it will be defined by what we stand for. As a beacon for American culture and values in the world, racial equity must be at the very heart of who we are and how we live our Purpose. With integrity as our compass, we promise to continue to listen, learn and take action into a better tomorrow.” – Ralph Lauren & Patrice Louvet https://lnkd.in/evs83ff
Christian Tookes, one of our Men’s Buyers, journeys back to his trip to Ghana in 2019 as a Ralph Lauren ambassador with GiveMeTap to expand local community access to clean water. Since 2018, we have been working with GiveMeTap to make clean water accessible in Ghana. Together, we have installed water pumps that provide drinking water to more than 18,000 people across the country. “Ralph Lauren is really a community of caring,” says Christian. “It’s caring about the people that you work with and it’s caring about the community that you’re creating.” Learn more: https://careers.ralphlauren.com/careersCorporate #LifeAtRL #RLGivesBack
