Pipeworks Studios recognizes the importance of creating an environment where all our employees feel included and empowered to bring ideas to the table. We value each employee’s unique experiences and perspectives across our company and recognize that it is both the smart and right thing to foster diversity, equity, and inclusion within our organization.

The gaming industry – Pipeworks included – has historically lacked diversity. Pipeworks is actively working to correct this within our own studio to ensure our workforce represents the diverse player community we serve.

A few of our current initiatives include:

• We are evaluating our policies and processes to reduce bias and ensure equity.
• We are providing training and education on the executive, management, and employee levels around diversity, equity, and inclusion.
• We are developing programs to support diversity and minority groups and upskill majority groups as allies.
• We are actively sourcing job candidates from more diverse communities.
• We are identifying ways to increase diversity and inclusion in our IP and product development processes to better connect with our market.

By diversifying our workforce, increasing equity, and ensuring that our individual differences are valued, we are better able to deliver an experience that reflects, inspires, and connects with our audience… because games are for everyone!
