Commitment to Diversity

84 Lumber Diversity Policy

At 84 Lumber, we value diversity because it demonstrates an ongoing commitment to people and to fair employment practices. We at 84 Lumber believe that Diversity is every 84 Associate’s responsibility, from our top leadership team throughout our entire company. We believe that by being inclusive, we gain competitive advantage.

The company benefits from the creativity and innovation that results when all 84 Lumber Associates who have different experiences, perspectives, and cultures work together. We understand and firmly believe that a well-managed, diverse workforce expands our marketplace and, in return, reaps many rewards. Most importantly, by having a diverse and inclusive workforce, we value and understand our diverse and changing customers throughout the country.
