Similar to other Silicon Valley tech companies, Apple has a work force that
is composed mostly of men, and most of them are white.
The company on Tuesday published statistics on the makeup of its work force
of 98,000 employees in terms of race, ethnicity and sex. It said 30 percent
of its employees worldwide were women. In the United States, where Apple is
based, 55 percent of the employees are white, 15 percent are Asian, 11
percent are Hispanic and only 7 percent are black.
Apple joins a number of American companies, including Google, Facebook and
Twitter, that have recently released so-called diversity reports in response
to pressure from the civil rights activist the Rev. Jesse L. Jackson, who
has called on tech companies to release this data about their work forces.
Apple’s report shows it is slightly more diverse than other tech giants, at
least in terms of ethnicity. Apple’s percentage of white American workers
(55 percent) is lower than Google’s (61 percent), Twitter’s (59 percent)
and Facebook’s (57 percent).
Apple published a letter from its chief executive, Timothy D. Cook,
alongside its diversity report. Mr. Cook noted that Apple’s definition of
diversity goes beyond ethnicity and gender and includes other personal
qualities like sexual orientation, disabilities or veteran status.
Though Apple’s overall work force teeters heavily toward white men, Apple,
under Mr. Cook’s leadership, has steadily added women or minorities to its
executive roster. Crucial hires and promotions include Angela Ahrendts, who
oversees Apple’s retail operations, and Denise Young-Smith, who took over
human relations. In July, Apple also added a woman, Susan L. Wagner, to its
boards.
Still, Mr. Cook admitted he was not happy with the results of the report.
“Let me say up front: As C.E.O., I’m not satisfied with the numbers on
this page,” Mr. Cook wrote. “They’re not new to us, and we’ve been
working hard for quite some time to improve them. We are making progress,
and we’re committed to being as innovative in advancing diversity as we are
in developing our products.”
In an interview, Mr. Jackson said he was glad that Mr. Cook had chosen to
reveal the report under his signature. He said the publication of diversity
reports by Apple and the other tech companies was a step in the right
direction. In the fall, he plans to hold a public forum, which will include
the tech companies that have disclosed diversity data, to talk about a plan
of action to help close the diversity gap.
“We think Silicon Valley is the fastest growing industry in America,” he
said. “We must be forward-thinking and inclusive in ways we have not been
before.”
