"Randstad US has demonstrated its unwavering commitment to drive systemic change in the human capital industry and our society. Earning a spot on the DiversityInc. Top 50 further illuminates the unifying power and passion of our people while impacting our culture, clients and communities, said Karen Fichuk, CEO, Randstad North America and Randstad N.V. executive board member.

"It is an honor to have once again earned a spot on the DiversityInc. list, and we look forward to advancing our efforts even further throughout 2021 and beyond."
"Randstad US has long been committed to fostering a culture where differences are not only understood, but valued and celebrated. We are honored to once again earn a spot on this year's list as we continue to invest in diversity, equity and inclusion both within our company, with our clients and in society, added Audra Jenkins, Chief Diversity Officer, Randstad North America.
