Diversity & Inclusion
Putting our initiative into action.
CSS Tec’s Commitment to Diversity and Inclusion
CSS Tec’s commitment to diversity can be traced back to our late founder, Donna Pearson. She was the sole provider for a family of five children and a pioneer in empowering women in the workplace and reaching across cultural boundaries. We continue her legacy over 25 years later by making diversity and inclusion top priorities.
CSS Tec recognizes that our employees’ differences in age, color, disability, ethnicity, family or marital status, gender identity or expression, language, national origin, physical and mental ability, political affiliation, race, religion, sexual orientation, socio-economic status, veteran status, and other characteristics contribute to the betterment of our work environments and the services we provide to our Clients.
CSS Tec’s diversity initiatives are implemented in our practices and policies on recruitment and selection, compensation, professional development and training, and promotions and transfers. We are dedicated to the ongoing development of a work environment that promotes respectful communication, teamwork, employee participation, and contributions to our surrounding community. Thank you for joining us on this journey.
CSS Tec has made a concerted effort to bring D&I to the focus of our organization, implementing the following:
- Mandatory Diversity & Inclusion Training for all corporate staff
