AMS is a business that places JEDI high on the list of our Core Values. JEDI is a convenient way of saying Justice, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion. It refers to the efforts a business is making to create meaningful, systemic change toward more equitable environment. AMS’ Chief Workforce Development Officer, Ken Wiseman, has defined the terms below. Diversity is when by design or good fortune, your mix of employees from underserved communities, in terms of their race, gender, sexual preference, judicial background, presence of disabilities, at least mirrors the community in which you do business or the community for which you serve. Sustainable logistics is ultimately a win-win for all parties. Not only will a negative impact on the environment be reduced, but sustainability also means improved efficiency and lower costs as a result of making the changes. As businesses along the supply chain begin to put their thought and effort into reducing the environmental impact of their process, the earth and the people get a win as well. Public concern for the environmental impact of manufacturing, transport, warehousing, and so forth has been gaining ground. Companies have been joining the B Corporation movement, with approximately 4,000 seeking to “Be the Change” in the world. Living up to the B Corporation standards environmentally requires astute planning and continuous effort. Increasing numbers of businesses along the supply chain are making that effort or beginning that effort.
