We institute measures, such as communications and trainings to interrupt and prevent bias in hiring, performance management, and compensation decisions and provide resources to further develop managers and leaders to help them make equitable decisions about pay.

Biogen believes in a culture of learning and we empower our employees to develop their careers.

Biogen conducts business in multiple countries with diverse work environments and a variety of jobs. While many Biogen employees have jobs that must be performed on-site at Biogen locations, there are some jobs that may be listed as Remote or Hybrid. This is a result of certain jobs allowing for more flexibility based on various factors such as employee needs, local laws and regulations, IT security and resources, and business need. The job Location Type should be listed within each individual job description. They are as follows:

• On Campus: All or most of the job responsibilities require on-site campus/office presence based on business needs. Campus-based employees may still have infrequent, sporadic and unexpected opportunities to work from home, which are agreed with the employee’s line manager as needed.
• Hybrid: Parts of the job tasks can be conducted off campus/office. Time is split between on and off-campus on a frequent, reoccurring basis. Some office presence is needed due to business needs. Employee must be co-located to a Biogen campus/office.
• Remote: All job tasks can be performed off-campus. Job tasks generally require heavy or consistent computer use.
• Field: Job tasks are performed within an identified territory, typically involving a high level of customer engagement.
