 Steelcase |
| |
Steelcase was founded in 1912 by people with a
strong commitment to integrity and doing the right thing for their
employees, customers, business partners, associates and neighbors.
In all of their diversity efforts, internal and
external, Steelcase sets the industry standard. For example, Steelcase has
the industry's first and largest Supplier Diversity Program. A look at
Steelcase's diversity and outreach
initiatives shows that the company's expression of this commitment has
matured over time. And
their understanding of
workplace diversity has broadened well beyond
issues of race and gender in hiring and promoting. A fundamental Steelcase
workforce strategy is to leverage the diversity of
ideas,
skills
and
cultures of all people at all levels of the company. |
