We’re fans of celebrating successes, milestones, and accomplishments across our corporate team and network of centers. We invite you to join our story and experience the EWC difference!
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DE&I)
European Wax Center and its DE&I Council are committed to fostering a diverse, equitable, and inclusive environment that values and embraces the different ethnicities, races, cultures, ages, abilities, gender identities, and systems of belief that comprise the European Wax Center workforce and guests. Grounded in our values, our goal is to ensure that we create awareness, community, and safe spaces for all.
To achieve this goal, we have implemented several initiatives that promote diversity, equity, and inclusion within our organization.
At EWC, we have a commitment to...
Equitable Employment Practicies
Recruitment and Hiring Practices: We Strive to attract a diverse pool of candidates for all job openings and ensure that our hiring practices are fair and equitable. We also offer accommodations for candidates with disabilities during the application and interview process, have diverse interview panels and recruit from a variety of sources.
Inclusive Policies and Benefits: We have implemented policies and benefits that support our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion.
Education
Training and Resources: We provide regular DE&I training sessions for all corporate associates to increase awareness and understanding of different cultures, backgrounds, and perspectives.
Media Club: The purpose is to engage and connect with one another via discussions on current events, media clips, books, podcasts, articles and other materials exploring topics related to diversity and inclusion that challenge our biases and expand our understanding of different cultures and experience.
"In My House" Podcast: Each episode features an associate who shares their personal experiences and traditions surrounding a specific cultural holiday to promote understanding and respect for different cultures and traditions.
Mentorship
Mentorship Program: We believe in providing ample opportunites for growth and development to our associates. To help associates navigate their careers, we offer a voluntary mentorship program that helps identify and develop vital skills.
Allyship
Diversity Allies: Our Allies Committee is a broad-based initiative that offers support for associate across the organization by colleagues who volunteer to serve as allies. These allies provide a safe space for a diverse cross section of associates to talk about any topic, seek guidance and feel heard.
Giving Back
We are proud to support the missions of organizations like WeHero and the National Domestic Violence Hotline through volunteerism and donation. By partnering with these organizations and others, we hope to make a difference in the lives of those in need and inspire more champions of confidence.
Pathways to Success
(Re)Build
Unlock
Philanthropy Initiatives
The mission of Pathways to Success, our brand-wide philanthropic efforts, is to help create smoother pathways by empowering and supporting our associates, guest and communities through two pillars: (Re)Build and Unlock.
Under the (Re)Build pillar, we aim to rebuild confidence, lift those in need of a second chance at success and support individuals who have faced adversity. In 2024, we are bringing the (Re)Build pillar to life by joining hands with the National Domestic Violence Hotline to bring attention to this critical topic and offer support, resources and funding to help survivors thrive. To learn more about The Hotline visit thehotline.org.
Under the Unlock pillar, we seek to open opportunities and careers people love through expert guidance, mentorship and scholarship. One way we’re doing that is by investing in our associates’ development to help them achieve their goals and build a long-lasting career. In 2022, we launched the “Champions in Confidence” EWC associate scholarship in partnership with Beauty Changes Lives that awards two $10,000 scholarships to EWC associates to help them pursue a career in waxing.
