Celebrating 50 Years Of Professionalism

Our team's professional image has set us apart for 50 years now.

For our associates, our image has helped us create a reputation every associate can take pride in. It helps us hire and retain the best people. Image also sets us apart in the marketplace. Customers want to work with providers who represent them to their customers in a professional way.

The past year has been especially difficult year with COVID, natural disasters, rising business levels and other challenges.  

Even with those challenges, we have achieved some of the most outstanding performance in our team's history. During chaotic times like these, it can be easy to overlook things like image.

We want our image to set us apart in the marketplace for the next 50 years. We need to make it a priority to ensure we are dressed and groomed properly, that our facilities are neat and organized and that our equipment is clean and in good condition. When we insist on a professional image, we instill pride in ourselves, strengthen our relationships with customers and better ensure our long-term future.

With all that in mind, we are announcing a change in our image policy.

Previously, beards and goatees have only been permitted for hourly and mileage associates in the field. We changed that policy a few years back because we believed society's views of facial hair had evolved. Today we are updating the policy to allow for more consistency across our team. Beginning Monday, Aug. 9, we will be permitting beards and goatees for all associates.

We encourage all associates to familiarize yourself with all of our image standards and to make sure you're doing your part to look sharp each day � from head to toe.

As we do that, we'll continue to set the standard for professionalism for the next 50 years and beyond. Thank you for all you do and for helping us maintain our reputation for professionalism.
