VIEW ESG REPORT (PDF)Connecting together
We seek ideas, encourage innovation and empower our colleagues through learning and development experiences that are aligned with our business strategy and contribute to our broader success. We interact meaningfully in the communities we serve by creating or supporting opportunities for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) learning, volunteering, and charitable giving.
Why inclusion matters
We combine global scale and local focus, with over 1,400 branches and offices, a direct presence in more than 70 countries, and serve customers in over 200 countries and territories.
Our strength comes from our diversity and the contributions made by many cultures, experiences and skill sets.
Development, engagement & retention
We trace our beginnings to one man’s genius, and the generations of innovators who came after him have kept us at the forefront of the industry he created. We nurture this pioneering culture by encouraging our colleagues to share ideas, develop new skills and become lifelong learners.
We offer a range of leadership and education programs, including our Employee Scholar Program, along with training programs aimed at advancing the skills of our field professionals.
Community
Otis has a rich history of contributing to communities, with partnerships that span decades. We advocate about a range of issues related to sustainable and inclusive mobility, with focused investments in STEM subjects: science, technology, engineering and math and creating more vibrant communities.
In 2020 we launched Made to Move Communities™, our signature corporate social responsibility (CSR) program and continue to drive year-over-year growth and impact by bringing unique programs and direct mentoring to student and schools in underrepresented communities, sparking an early, life-long interest in STEM – and helping cultivate the next generation of Otis colleagues..
