Assurant's Commitment to Employee Paid Leave Transparency
Reflecting on World Day for Cultural Diversity in May, we were inspired by so many of the Assurant employees who shared unique and personal stories. As part of that celebration, Todd Barello proudly shared his Jewish heritage with us: “May is Jewish American Heritage Month. Throughout time, it was looked down upon to be Jewish. People were held back, punished, discriminated against, told “no” and even killed. Despite these obstacles, Jewish people have held their heads high, pushed back, and never let anyone stop them from achieving their goals, which has helped shape the world. To share my Jewish culture, I'm sharing a picture of apple charoset (pronounced “Horosa”). It is a dish that reminds me of my grandfather, as he traditionally made this dish. While the recipe varies, common ingredients include apples, pears, raisins, figs, orange juice, red wine, pine nuts and cinnamon and it is traditionally eaten during Passover Seder. I'm proud to be Jewish, during this month and every day.”
World Day for Cultural Diversity Employee Reflections
In recognition of World Day for Cultural Diversity, Assurant employees across the globe shared their cultural insights and we're excited to share Melissa Tam’s with you: "As an AAPI that was born in the US with immigrant parents, English became my primary language out of necessity. Fast forward many years later and both my children are in a Mandarin immersion school, because both heritage and diversity helped me to be a better leader. It allowed me to empathize and collaborate with people that have had accomplishments, struggles and experiences shaped by their own cultural differences. Diversity of thought, inclusion of ideas and courage to change is what drives organizations (and people!) to succeed."

Ahead of World Day for Cultural Diversity, our team around the world has been sharing cultural insights with each other, and we want to share them with you too. From Jessica Schumacher: "Although I have lived in the United States for nearly 23 years, I am originally from Northern Spain. Usually people will dress in traditional clothing for town festivals to celebrate their heritage, you will also see performances of traditional dances. The Txistu, is a popular Basque instrument usually played alongside a drum during these celebrations, typically you would march around the streets of the town for all to hear. My son got to visit Spain and meet his great grandma for the first time in 2019, hopefully we can go back again soon."

We asked our employees why diversity in the workplace is important, and Ricardo Corporán delivered: “Our individual cultural identities help inform the way we see the world. Sharing about our cultural diversity with our colleagues in the workplace is super important as it offers new perspectives that can inspire us to see the world in a different light. Bringing these new perspectives about the world into the workplace have been proven to inspire creativity, drive innovation, and even make businesses more competitive and profitable!”
