Diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) are essential aspects of our company culture. We believe that everyone should be treated with respect and have the opportunity to succeed, regardless of their race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, or religion. We are committed to creating an inclusive environment where everyone can feel comfortable and respected.
DEI is about creating a workplace and community that respects everyone and values the unique contributions of all individuals. It is about understanding and appreciating differences and using those differences to create positive change. DEI is essential for organizations that want to thrive in the 21st century. We believe that inclusion is not just a nice thing to do, it is the right thing to do. We are committed to creating a workplace and community where everyone feels welcome and appreciated.
Differences may not be seen. We have learned that team members may have special needs that are not visible. Equal treatment for all staff.
For example:
- We have never had a college education requirement for prospective new hires. There is no exclusion for talent.
- We celebrate every US Federal holiday. Not for another day off but out of reverence for the meaning of these holidays.
DEI is achieved through common values. We communicate, communicate, communicate!
