 31, 2024, we employed 659 individuals, none of which are represented by a union or subject to a collective bargaining agreement, and we have never experienced a work stoppage.

The attraction, development and retention of our employees is a critical success factor for our business. We have a dedicated recruitment team which leverages internal and external resources to enable successful employee recruitment. We emphasize employee development and training and have established Arbor University, an online portal with a variety of training and development courses for our employees. 

Our compensation and benefit programs aim to attract, retain, and motivate employees to achieve superior results. We provide employee wages that are competitive and consistent with employee positions, skill levels, knowledge, and location. Annual increases and incentive compensation are based on merit, which is communicated to employees at the time of hiring and documented through our talent management process as part of our annual review procedures and upon promotion and/or internal transfer. All employees are eligible for health insurance, including mental health coverage, prescription drug benefits, dental and vision insurance, flexible spending accounts, paid and unpaid leaves, disability/accident coverage, life insurance and participation in a 401K plan. We also have a flexible telecommuting policy, which allows eligible employees to work remotely one day per week.

To assess and improve employee retention and engagement, we conduct periodic employee surveys and take actions designed to address areas of employee concerns. We believe the combination of competitive compensation, career growth and development opportunities, including promoting employees from within, have helped manage our employee tenure and voluntary turnover.
