What are ERGs?

Employee Resource Groups (ERGs)are voluntary, employee-led groups that act as a resource to both their members and to Stryker. ERGs foster understanding and inclusion in the workplace. These groups provide a means for employees to network, exchange views about managing common business challenges, and continue their professional growth and development. Up to 90% of Fortune 500 companies benefit from ERGs and can take multiple forms – they can be small or large and can exist at one location or be Stryker-wide.
