Our goal is to be the best job our employees have ever had — for every single employee. We measure this in our biennial employee survey and even base executive bonuses on improving the score. Our Board is 75% diverse by ethnicity and gender. Our CEO staff is 30% diverse by ethnicity and gender. We've also diversified at the VP and director levels. We aim to support more women in manufacturing, a typically male -dominated industry. In 2021, we achieved gender pay equity at all levels of the company and continue to keep the data current each year. Creating our Wastequip Women's Group has been a major step in galvanizing women's involvement from corporate as well as at our plants. We operate an intern program every summer, drawing students from all over the U.S., who work on real projects to move the company forward and experience all aspects necessary to a manufacturing company — Sales, Sustainability, Finance, Sales, Marketing, and Engineering. To foster this talent further, our Leadership Development Program (LDP) exposes entry-level talent to several aspects of our business via four distinct six-month rotations before placing them in a long-term position. In addition, we have implemented a welder training program that aims to recruit under employed individuals and teach them to weld, which enters them into the skilled labor pool. Planet. We believe in leaving more than we take from our environment and leaving the planet better than we found it. While we've made strides in previous years — like installing energy -efficient lighting in our facilities, implementing a pallet -recycling program, recycling our own scrap, and reducing our inbound and outbound freight — our CORE program brings a more methodical approach to define meaningful steps and what's right for our Planet with data. For most of a year, we researched sustainability reporting frameworks and processes to understand how we can make meaningful change. We monitor the Climate Disclosure Project's (CDP) requirements, Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB), companies setting Science -Based Targets, and the national reporting conversations. We base our Planet data on the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Protocol Corporate Standard because it is global, quantitatively rigorous, and consistent with how other companies calculate their emissions. As part of the EPA's guidelines and GHG Protocol Corporate Standard, we drafted an Inventory Management Plan, which helped us evaluate where our emissions come from and determine how we will manage our data ongoing. Under the GHG protocol, our organizational boundary includes all three of our divisions — Parts & Service, Containers, and Trucks. To begin, we focused on our Trucks and Containers manufacturing, because they are our largest source of emissions.
