Our Goals & Progress

Assurant is committed to operating sustainably to support our long-term success and our ability to create positive impact for our stakeholders.

Our sustainability strategic framework includes being a responsible employer that values DEI and investing in talent; having a meaningful impact on society by strengthening communities and investing sustainably; anticipating and meeting our customer commitments and the needs of the people we serve; and adhering to unwavering standards of integrity and ethics.

2020–2025 ESG Strategic Focus Areas

As part of our long-term strategic planning process, we prioritized three ESG areas of strategic focus: Talent, Products, and Climate.

Talent

We aspire to foster a diverse, equitable, and inclusive culture to drive innovation for the benefit of all stakeholders.

We drive innovation by ensuring that our workforce reflects the diversity and inclusivity of our consumers and the communities we serve. We will continue to adapt and evolve new ways of working to strengthen our global bench of talent and commit to fair, equitable pay and benefits. And we support communities and the greater good through grants, volunteer activation, and engagement.

Products

We aspire to help customers thrive in a Connected World.

We leverage insights to accelerate the introduction of offerings that add customer value and make a positive impact on society. And we’ll continue to help consumers understand and invest in digital protection products and services to enhance access and ease of use through seamless support.

Climate

We aspire to operate in ways that minimize our carbon footprint and align our commitments to enhance climate action and environment performance.

We work to strengthen climate resiliency, extend and enhance product life cycles, and identify vulnerabilities through robust risk management. We track and report Scopes 1, 2, and 3 emissions globally and have established a near-term target to lower our Scope 1 and 2 emissions. We’re improving energy efficiency in our facilities and also integrating our environmental commitments within our investment portfolio.
