Who we are and what we believe

• Where our employees have the choice to work “union-free” we will work directly with our employees to foster an environment where unions are not necessary…

Our experience and belief is that a Direct Relationship between the company and its employees works best for

• Staying competitive in our industry and maintaining job security
• Employee satisfaction with their work environment
• Maintaining flexibility to get the work done in a quality manner, on time
• Allowing employees to thrive on their own merit– instead of a lock-step seniority system
• Reducing workplace conflict and enhancing teamwork

We treat people fairly and prohibit discrimination

• We strive to build and maintain a productive, motivated work force by treating employees fairly and equitably.
• We respect and recognize the contributions of employees as well as other stakeholders.
• We will select and place employees on the basis of their qualifications for the work to be performed, considering accommodations as appropriate and needed — without regard to their race, religion, national origin, color, gender, sexual orientation, age, and/or physical or mental disability.
• We support and obey laws that prohibit discrimination everywhere we do business.
• We expect to conduct our business in such a way that employees will not feel the need for representation by unions or other third parties.
  • Where employees have chosen such representation, or been required by law to do so, we will pursue an honest, business-like approach in working with those representatives.
