- Our CEO, Peter Quigley, signed the CEO Action for Diversity & Inclusion™ pledge—confirming our commitment to advancing diversity and inclusion in the workplace.
- We’re using technology across our job postings to facilitate equitable, inclusive language.
- We’ve formed a global inclusion council and affinity groups for Asian & Pacific Islander, Black, Latinx, LGBTQ, women, and millennial employees.
- We’ve joined several other Michigan-based businesses and local organizations in supporting a LGBTQ civil rights initiative, aimed at amending the state’s anti-discrimination law.

We’ve offered eligible employees remote work options since 2016 to promote greater flexibility and personal wellbeing. Leaders should rethink requiring in-person work, and consider how remote work would diversify their talent pool and present more opportunities for inclusion.
