Engaged culture

Our commitment

At Jackson, our workplace culture and associate engagement are integral to the growth and longevity of our company. We are committed to a culture of respect and believe that inclusion is the key to this culture, enabling our ability to innovate, execute and grow for the benefit of our associates, customers, shareholders and the communities where we live.

Our mission


Jackson cultivates a culture rooted in respect, empowerment, creativity and execution, where every individual feels valued, inspired, and equipped to contribute their best. We are stronger together, and fostering an environment where associates are supported to innovate, lead and collaborate enables our success as a company and as individuals.
 

Our pillars

We view diversity and inclusion as more than policies — they are an integral part of who we are as a company. To support the realization of our vision and mission, we have established the following strategic pillars:

  • Ensure an inclusive workplace: foster a culture where associates can build meaningful relationships, unlock their full potential and celebrate each other’s successes.
  • Develop a robust talent pool: welcome unique perspectives and capabilities across the business by attracting a robust pipeline of talent for development and succession planning.
  • Leverage partnerships: engage external organizations that support our mission and vision and add value and resources to the work we are doing internally.
  • Report our progress: execute on culture and engagement goals and objectives against which Jackson can be evaluated.

Advisory Council

Our Advisory Council, established in 2018, identifies opportunities for advancing our workplace culture, aligned with Jackson’s values. The Advisory Council is chaired by our Director of Diversity & Inclusion with executive sponsorship by our Chief Human Resources Officer and Chief Innovation and Technology Officer.

Our Business Resource Associate Groups (BRAGs)

Our workplace culture comes to life through our voluntary, associate-led resource groups. Supported by executive leadership and aligned with our mission and core values, our BRAGs provide opportunities to empower all associates to share their unique talents with each other.
