A diverse workforce and inclusive culture help us strengthen areas that need improvement and inspire creative solutions. We believe the attention given to diversity and inclusion makes us more agile, trustworthy and innovative.

Hainfort Associates’ Diversity & Inclusion philosophy aims to foster a truly inclusive workplace that encourages more meaningful engagement among our employees to strengthen our performance.

Reinforcing the critical importance of diversity & inclusion to business performance, everyone is held accountable in advancing diversity at all levels of the company. Diversity and inclusion accountability metrics are tied to compensation for the corporate executive management team.

Diversity & Inclusion are cornerstones of Hainfort Associates’ values and are critical to ongoing business success. An inclusive work environment that values the diversity of our employees’ talents, experiences and ideas, leads to more innovation and ultimately higher performance. Hainfort Associates’ focus on people has helped establish a culture that attracts, develops and retains more diverse talent.

Partnering is critical to our success in attracting talent; we are building trusting and mutually beneficial relationships with strategic partners and are most successful when our partners succeed with us.

To strengthen organizational capability, we develop our employees’ and contractors’ skills and experience through a strategy of investing in people.

To help ensure that our employees understand our policies and know how inclusion is practiced throughout our company, we provide opportunities such as diversity training and guidance on personal diversity action plans.

As part of our Invest in People strategy, discussions focused on continually improving individual performance are held between managers and employees.

Skill development occurs at each stage of our employees’ careers. For example, all new employees are expected to participate in the onboarding learning journey – including the ‘New to Hainfort Associates’ induction within their first six months on the job.

We’re also helping employees expand employees’ horizons and plan for future positions by enabling employees to apply for short-term project opportunities across the organization to grow their capabilities beyond their current roles.

Hainfort Associates conducts a survey of our employees worldwide to understand their level of engagement, assess Hainfort Associates against the attributes of a high-performance organization, and measure the impact of our people development programs.
