Women
Zoetis Inc. (NYSE: ZTS) today announced that it has been named
one of the 2019 Top Companies for Executive Women by the National

list.
“We are honored to be named one of NAFE’s Top Companies for
Executive Women for the first time,” said Roxanne Lagano, Executive
Vice President, Chief Human Resources Officer and Communications at
Zoetis. “We strive to create a workplace where diverse backgrounds

levels, but especially the corporate officer and profit-and-loss
leadership ranks. The application tracks and examines how many
employees have access to programs and policies that promote
advancement of women and how many employees take advantage of them,
plus how companies train managers to help women advance. To be

boards of directors, a U.S.-based CEO, and at least 1,000 U.S.
