PEOPLE 

A t Ford, our most important asset isn’t real estate, and it isn’t machinery; it’s our employees. We make diversity and inclusion a priority. 

We emphasize corporate citizenship in the places we call home. We sponsor programs and opportunities to help employees improve their work-life balance. We value the longstanding contributions made by members of labor organizations around the world. We also work to inspire our suppliers worldwide to extend that same level of inclusion to the people who work for them. Our global terms and conditions call on them to offer safe and fair working conditions, no matter where they may be. 

Ford employees repay that investment by serving as the heart of our company. From going the extra mile for customers, to raising awareness and funds for juvenile diabetes and other charities worldwide, our extended family has proven its willingness to reach out and to serve. 

In 2005, we are embracing that spirit with the creation of the Ford Volunteer Corps, an umbrella organization under which our employees can volunteer for a wide range of corporate citizenship projects. The first major project of the Corps will be to rebuild in areas hardest hit by the Dec. 26 tsunami in Asia, continuing the efforts initiated by Ford employees in the first hours following this tragedy. 

Our history is filled with families who have, generation after generation, found Ford to be a great place to work. They show that in their dedication and their spirit. And that’s one piece of our heritage that we’ll carry into our future.
