Culture

Our core values include operating with integrity in all that we do, respecting the individual, embracing diverse perspectives and creativity to spark innovation, and acting responsibly in the communities where we live and work. Our culture helps to unlock each employee's sense of belonging and unique contributions, creating a culture where people bring their best ideas to the office and feel good about the work environment.

Talent Management and Training

As we adapt to changes in business needs and priorities, addressing skill gaps and building, and sustaining, strong talent is critical to our success. Our people strategy includes a mix of developmental roles and learning experiences for our current employees as well as acquiring external talent to address new capabilities to help the organization accelerate growth. We also deliver Company-required learning to ensure compliance with our Code of Conduct and other important policies.

Employee Health and Safety ("EHS")

We are committed to Mission Zero— pursuing continuous improvement in health and safety within all our locations and to attain our goal of zero accidents and zero incidents. We have implemented our Comprehensive Environmental and Safety Management Plan as an overall management system for our manufacturing and distribution locations. Audits are completed by our teams to measure the proactive steps each location is taking to prevent injuries. We have been recognized as one of the safest companies in America and the U.K. on multiple occasions.
