Our People
 We are built on a foundation of articulated values, one being “Inclusion Makes us Stronger.” For our associates, we want to be the Employer of Choice that ensures a sustainable workforce, where appreciating and drawing on the strength of diversity is embraced at all of our levels.
We are proud of the strides we are making to create opportunities for all associates. We continue to implement initiatives to attract and retain a diverse workforce, including recruiting from colleges and universities with large multicultural populations. We also provide associates with on-the-job training, leadership seminars, and direct access to job opportunities through our Career Preference System. We are delighted to be seen as an employer of choice, as evidenced by the receipt of more than 13 million job applications online and from our network of more than 7,900 applicant kiosks in 2008.
