The Power of Working Together

We help each other succeed. We are a team, sharing our unique talents to help those with whom we work, live and serve. The diverse thinking and decision making of our people strengthens our team. We respect and value people with different opinions, experiences and backgrounds. We strive to understand the big picture, and then do our part. We know that by working together, we can produce better results than any of us can achieve alone.

We put Teamwork in action when…

 We Treat Others with Respect and Do Not Tolerate Intimidation or Harassment  

The full value of each individual’s contribution can be realized only when we treat one another with the respect, trust and dignity we ourselves expect. IFI Industrial Forklift insists on a work environment free of intimidation and harassment. As individual employees, we have the right to expect a positive working environment, along with the responsibility to speak out and ask for change if we observe conduct that runs contrary to this principle.

We Treat People Fairly and Prohibit Discrimination

We build and maintain a productive, motivated work force by treating all employees fairly and equitably. We respect and recognize the contributions of employees as well as other stakeholders. We will select and place employees on the basis of their qualifications for the work to be performed, considering accommodations as appropriate and needed—without regard to their race, religion, national origin, color, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, age and/or physical or mental disability. We support and obey laws that prohibit discrimination everywhere we do business. We expect to conduct our business in such a way that employees will not feel the need for representation by unions or other third parties. Where employees have chosen such representation, or been required by law to do so, we will pursue an honest, business-like approach in working with those representatives

We Foster an Inclusive Environment

We understand and accept the uniqueness of individuals and are nonjudgmental regarding differences. We value the diversity of unique talents, skills, abilities, cultures and experiences that enable IFI Industrial Forklift people to achieve superior business and personal results.

We will leverage our experience to achieve the best results for the enterprise.
