Employee Programs

Work that occurs in the presence of human dignity and freedom benefits those who do it as well as their products.

Highland Craftsmen Inc.® values our employees, contractors, vendors and relationships. As a company, we have embraced the Global Sullivan Principles. The objectives of the Global Sullivan Principles are to support economic, social and political justice by companies where they do business; to support human rights and to encourage equal opportunity at all levels of employment, including racial and gender diversity on decision making committees and boards; to train and advance disadvantaged workers for technical, supervisory and management opportunities; and to assist with greater tolerance and understanding among peoples; thereby, helping to improve the quality of life for communities, workers and children with dignity and equality. HC has a Social Equity plan that is shared with our staff and sub-contractors.

Wholistic health and safety are important to us. Employees are encouraged to take personal time to explore personal, spiritual, physical and family growth opportunities as they identify meaningful. HC® offers a health care plan for full-time employees.

We take every opportunity to integrate wellness in our daily practices. During warmer months, employees use bikes to do errands in town. We have installed a fully functional kitchen for meal preparation and a shower area for employee use.

HC employees a registered nurse in an occupational health capacity. Together with a veteran quality control officer, they administer regular safety checks in all plant operating areas. Education is provided on operational procedures as well as various health topics. We employ off duty police officers to maintain safety and security at the plant. The officers patrol the area to ensure that pedestrians remain in designated walk through corridors.

HC shares our bounty. As HC grows, employees are rewarded with salary increases and bonuses. We serve on community boards, participate in community activities and fund raisers and strive to deepen meaningful, lasting relationships.
