Corporate Relocation: Diversity Initiatives
Allied Van Lines understands that increasing employee diversity generates a need for new and unique relocation solutions; a need that only a van line committed to diversity can fulfill. Just as our corporate relocation services are diversified, so is our workforce. At Allied, we understand how integral diversity is to the overall functioning and prosperity of the workplace environment - for yours and ours.
Allied is the first van line to embrace the concept of workforce diversity and minority business development. Both as a global employer and a purchaser of services, Allied demonstrates an ongoing dedication toward equal opportunities for all. Using our successful minority business development programs, Allied is helping clients achieve their own minority business development objectives as well.
Allied is the first van line to become a corporate member of the National Minority Supplier Development Council. We are proud to be the first van line to fill this position with the council to better our own workforce and the community.
- A significant commitment has been made by the Allied agent network to purchase goods and services from minority-owned businesses/enterprises such as a diverse cross-section of drivers and front line service providers.
- A Minority Business Development Council has been established to ensure Allied's minority business development objectives are met.
- Allied participates in the "Welfare to Work" Program - a national effort of the business community to help move people on public assistance to jobs in the private sector.
We are perpetually striving towards improving our offerings, from corporate relocation services to a strong, diversified workforce. Our dedication to our continuous diversity initiatives is unfaltering, as we will continue to strengthen our position as a global employer. Allied is committed to the success of our ongoing diversity initiatives, recognizing their importance as key ingredients in a formula for a better world.
