We welcome all viewpoints and encourage the open exchange of ideas and respectful dialogue. We want all employees to feel comfortable being themselves and contributing through their unique experiences.
We honor individuality, human dignity, and fairness.
Together, we can empower one another to do our best work.
We promote mutual respect and openness, and we value team members with a broad range of backgrounds, ideas, and life experiences.
By recognizing the unique skills and talents of each person, and offering support and coaching to help them maximize their contributions and personal satisfaction, we aim to build a strong and dynamic future for the organization.
All interactions and conversations should be approached with an open mind, respecting and acknowledging the inherent dignity and worth of every individual.
Employees should be given opportunities for cross-collaboration and rotational assignments to enrich the workplace environment, encourage a wide range of perspectives, and inspire innovative solutions.
Respect and civility will be extended to all individuals regardless of age, disability, educational background, family status, gender, gender identity and expression, nationality, race/ethnicity, religion, position, sex, sexual orientation, socioeconomic level, or veteran status.
We believe that effective hiring strategies should include social media, professional associations, job postings, and publications to reach the broadest pool of candidates.
Training will be provided on hiring practices and the impact of unconscious bias in the recruitment process.
We will organize workshops, focus groups, and learning opportunities to explore topics relevant to today’s workplace, including unconscious bias, generational and cultural differences, and the employment of persons with disabilities.
By gaining a deeper understanding of experiences different from our own, we can work toward creating a truly welcoming and respectful work culture.
We strive to ensure employees are engaged and recognized for their contributions to the organization’s success.
But change takes time.
We encourage you to get involved with the Engagement & Belonging initiative so we can continue building a positive and supportive work culture for the continued betterment of IU and its employees.
