Diversity, Equity & Inclusion:
Commitments to Help
All Thrive
Our people are the core of Assurant’s competitive advantage because we know that diversity broadens our perspective and promotes innovation. It’s a central reason why Assurant is increasingly recognized as a global employer of choice. We’re not just supporting the connected world; we’re helping our clients shape it with the people, the technology, and the experience to envision a brighter, even better-connected future.
Thriving means fostering an understanding and awareness of why our differences make us stronger, ensuring that employees feel a sense of belonging and see how their work ties back to our purpose.”
— Francesca Luthi, Executive Vice President, Chief Administrative Officer, Assurant, Inc.
Promoting a Diverse Culture to Build Bench Strength
At Assurant, we celebrate the differences that make us who we are, recognizing that being a diverse, equitable, and inclusive company helps us to better understand and connect with our employees, clients, and customers.
Our talent is at the center of our Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) strategy because they reflect who we are and who we want to be. Each year, we find new ways to build and empower diverse, winning teams; to embody our values of common decency, common sense, uncommon thinking, and uncommon results; and to enable our employees to live The Assurant Way in celebration of our diverse thoughts and experiences.
In 2022, we advanced our DEI strategy through a number of powerful initiatives:
- Launched three Employee Resource Groups: Women@Assurant, Veterans@Assurant, and Mosaic@Assurant, and laid the foundation for the launch of Pride@Assurant and Abilities@Assurant
- Sponsored an inaugural, enterprisewide diversity and inclusion mentorship program
- Awarded approximately $31 million to diverse-owned businesses, demonstrating continued commitment to Assurant’s Supplier Diversity Program
- Expanded employee participation in targeted development programs for women and underrepresented groups, including HACE (Hispanic Alliance for Career Enhancement), ELC (Executive Leadership Council), and LEAP (Leadership Acceleration Program) forums
