HNL Lab Medicine's Statement of Philosophy on Diversity
HNL Lab Medicine is committed to fostering, cultivating and preserving a culture of diversity and inclusion. We strive to attract, develop, and retain a diverse and inclusive workforce. By seeking top talent across a broad spectrum, we aim to ensure that we have the best people to help us reach our business goals. Our human capital is the most valuable asset we have. The collective sum of the individual differences, life experiences, knowledge, inventiveness, innovation, self-expression, unique capabilities, and talent that our employees invest in their work represents a significant part of not only our culture, but our reputation and achievements as well.
We embrace, appreciate, and respect our employees’ differences in age, color, disability, ethnicity, family or marital status, gender identity or expression, language, national origin, physical and mental ability, political affiliation, race, religion, sexual orientation, socio-economic status, veteran status, and other characteristics that make our employees unique.
HNL Lab Medicine is an organization committed to core values such as, respect, integrity, and honesty. A key element of respect is rewarding competency, performance, and character. Individuals must be judged by their personal merits, not their membership in any group. Fairness is the cornerstone of who we are.

- Respectful communication and cooperation between all employees.
