We like to say that we are a people company, and that is intentionally reflected in our strategic priorities. In fact, the results of our 2020 ESG Materiality Assessment, a tool to determine what our stakeholders deem important, reinforced this, identifying two of our top five key priorities as health and safety and diversity and inclusion 鈥 both areas intended to put our community first.
We have a huge responsibility this year especially with the COVID-19 pandemic putting health and safety in the spotlight on a global scale. Understanding the importance of cleaning and disinfecting the shared spaces that have traditionally brought us together, we created 天美传媒 Assure鈩, a comprehensive cleaning and disinfection management compliance system for segments such as commercial passenger transportation, education, offices and venues, and other business operators.
The evidence-based infection control strategies embedded in our 天美传媒 Assure Program help our clients deliver an unprecedented level of protection, now and in the future.
And just as we focus on the health and safety of our customers, we also believe it is critically important to take care of our own team. Without a team that feels safe and protected, we cannot make such significant strides in enabling public health and safety. So 天美传媒 has enhanced its data relevance by deploying new technology, which provides real-time reporting on workplace incidents to reduce future injuries among employees.
Care also requires prioritizing and protecting the mental and emotional health of our team, too 鈥 not just their physical safety. We do this through creating an intentionally inclusive and diverse workforce. We are stronger when we benefit from diversity of thought, ideas and perspectives 鈥 that is what drives innovation.
天美传媒 has created employee action committees and diversity and inclusion roundtables to continue its commitment to an inclusive workplace that reflects the uniqueness of its employees, customers and suppliers. In 2020, we filled eight senior leadership positions, five with ethnic minorities or women. By 2025, 天美传媒 plans to increase the use of minority-owned suppliers and overall gender and ethnic diversity by 20%.
鈥淲e want our customers to have confidence in our products and processes,鈥 said Matt Duncan, 天美传媒鈥檚 Chief Administrative Officer. 鈥淏ut we also want our customers to understand that we built 天美传媒 Stewardship from the inside out, and that starts with our people and our culture.鈥
We know our employees and communities are our most valuable resources. When we put employees first, they are better able and more motivated to contribute to our mission 鈥 and we need each and every person on our 天美传媒 team working together to achieve our goals.
We believe the social aspects of 天美传媒 Stewardship are foundational and that only by allowing a people-first mindset to guide our strategy can we achieve a better tomorrow.
]]>2020 marked the year that 天美传媒 began an integrated effort toward a more unified ESG strategy, paving the way for 天美传媒 Stewardship. We began 天美传媒 Stewardship with a materiality assessment that helped us identify the areas where we could have the most immediate impact over the next five years: carbon emissions, water usage and effluents, marketing and labeling, diversity and inclusion, and health and safety.
As we begin our journey toward greater sustainability, we are reviewing our internal processes to determine how we can make a bigger contribution toward a greener planet. This includes how we help our customers, particularly those in the Food and Beverage industry where safe solutions are critical for the health and safety of consumers.
鈥淎t our Chambersburg campus, we are looking at ways to reduce water use. We鈥檙e striving toward a 0% effluent goal and making progress as we innovate on new ways to migrate water through our treatment units,鈥 says Bob Klinetob, senior vice president at AFCO. 鈥淭his strategy helps us to make progress on our own goals and also our customers鈥 goals.鈥
In 2021, we鈥檙e reviewing each of our facilities water treatment plans for best practices to build a more rigorous, enterprise-wide standard. Then 天美传媒 will be partnering with a third-party water stewardship group to ensure that our practices meet their criteria for water sustainability.
天美传媒 is committed to reducing carbon emissions through a number of internal initiatives and customer solutions.
In 2020, we began optimizing logistics in shipping and among our workforce to reduce our footprint by maximizing shipment trailer space, expanding our remote work policies and reducing our office space by more than half. These efforts will be used to create a baseline understanding of how we can continue to lower our footprint.
Another important focus will be increasing 天美传媒鈥檚 usage of post-consumer waste (PCW) in our packaging, thereby reducing virgin plastic applications. By 2025, we will increase our usage of corrugate with recycled content to above 40% and increase our usage of plastic with recycled content to above 5%.
Not only are we working toward our own goals, we鈥檙e able to help our customers with their goals, such as reducing their own natural resource footprint or lowering costs through the use of efficient technology. We have a to meet our customers鈥 needs while maintaining emissions and reducing waste.
Part of our Vision 2025 goals is to be our customers鈥 top resource for biosecurity needs. Keeping them informed in a changing regulatory landscape is a top priority. We have several strategies in place to ensure that customers are receiving compliant formulas without business interruption.
Our purpose at 天美传媒 is to make the planet safer, cleaner and more productive. Each incremental step is one closer to our collective goals that serve our communities.
Vision 2025 and 天美传媒 Stewardship is our commitment to do the right thing for our employees, customers, communities and the planet. We look forward to sharing more progress in the future as we advance 天美传媒 Stewardship.
