ASB HAS IDEAS When it comes to diversity, equity and inclusion, ASB is committed to doing our part to drive positive change within our company and community. Our ASB has IDEAS (Inclusivity, Diversity, Equity, Allyship and Safety) Council is a committee of teammate volunteers who are committed to protecting and promoting our great place to work culture and ensuring everyone feels valued for their talents, feels a sense of belonging and knows that their voice matters. The council, which is open to all teammates, meets regularly to discuss new ideas, organize various celebrations and educational opportunities, and identify ways to ensure ASB remains a diverse, inclusive and respectful workplace. In 2022, the ASB has IDEAS Council broadened awareness for Black History Month by creating an activity card that encouraged teammates to learn about the significance of the annual celebration and support black-owned businesses. For May Day, teammates from across ASB sewed more than 375 feet of lei, which was donated to a nearby senior center. The next month, ASB observed the Juneteenth holiday, a recommendation that stemmed from the council that ASB adopted. Volunteers also hosted a workshop to help teammates learn how to better cope with and support loved ones dealing with challenges in honor of Mental Health Awareness Month. Then in December, the Council helped teammates learn about other types of cultural and religious holidays such as Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa and Winter Solstice.
