As a people-focused solutions business, our impact on the environment is relatively low. Still, we regularly look for ways to take action and serve as responsible stewards of the environment. We must search for every opportunity to integrate sustainability into the bedrock of our Firm—for ourselves and for our communities. We are proud to share that 2022 saw some of our greatest environmental benefits to date thanks to our rollout of office occasional. Our remote-first hybrid work model resulted in a significant reduction in office space, business travel, in-office electricity usage and employee commutes. To learn more about office occasional’s impact on the environment, see the Greenhouse Gas Emission section below. Our commitment to well-being, flexibility and balance, our approach to best-in-class learning and development, and our ongoing efforts to create a diverse and inclusive workplace are a testament to how much we value and invest in our people. Each day is an opportunity to build up our people and shape the world in which we all want to live: one grounded in inclusion, empowerment and fulfillment. Our DE&I mission is to advocate for and support the inclusion, growth and success of all people connected to Kforce. We take a variety of approaches to meet this goal with the ultimate intent of weaving DE&I seamlessly into our overall firm strategy. Our DE&I Council, comprised of passionate internal thought-leaders, provides accountability as we grow and sustain an inclusive culture of belonging. The addition of listening sessions and the expansion of associate-led affinity groups allows for a greater sense of support and visibility for communities within Kforce. And our ongoing supplier diversity initiatives ensure we are actively building a diverse, equitable and inclusive community through all of our partnerships. We are a proud supporter of the Diverse Supplier Grant Initiative, sponsored by JPMorgan Chase & Co. Our Board of Directors and executive team ensure ethical operations and the long-term interests of the stakeholders we serve. They set the tone and expectations at the highest levels, cascading this culture and commitment to every corner of the firm. Kforce’s leaders are committed to ensuring our governance principles and core values are the foundation behind our strategy and are supported by ethical and fair business practices.
