💛🌈 Today is International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia & Biphobia. Creating a better and more equal everyday life for the many can’t be done without celebrating and accepting each individual for their truest self. Every day, we aim to build a world where everyone can feel at home and appreciated for who they are, no matter what.
#HappyMothersDay! 💛 I’m Dana Saltarella, a recruiter for IKEA U.S. and this is my first Mother’s Day after welcoming my daughter, Elle, in July. This new phase is uncertain for all, which is why I’m so grateful to work for a company like IKEA that supports their co-workers by giving them ample time to adjust to a new family member.

Hej neighbors! 👋 My name is Dino Madayag. I’m the Business Navigation & Operations Manager at IKEA Oak Creek, have been an IKEA co-worker for over 21 years and am of Filipino decent. During this Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, I want to take a moment to impart some wisdom for AAPI youth: let every facet of your identity and heritage be visible and shine through, and always remember that your whole being is so much greater than the sum of your parts. How are you celebrating this year?
Happy #EarthDay! Today we’re celebrating our planet and our people. 🌍🌈🌼 Our co-workers and their families inspire us every day – not only with their commitment to creating a better life at home, but through their efforts to bring #sustainability to life at IKEA U.S. Hear more from some of our co-workers as they share what sustainability means to them and why even the smallest effort can have a lasting impact in making our shared home happier and healthier.
We’re honored to be recognized for our diverse and inclusive workplace! 🤝 We live by our shared values every day and aim to create an equal and open work environment to provide our co-workers with a space they can be their unique selves. Thank you, Forbes, for the recognition!
When it comes to sustainability, we mean business. ✍️ In addition to our goal of becoming climate positive by 2030, we’re joining several other leading businesses in asking our government to commit to a 2030 climate goal, too. By signing on to a letter organized by We Mean Business, we’re asking the current administration to commit to a goal of cutting emissions by at least 50% below 2005 levels by 2030.
Life-changing events make an impact on us long after they’re over. For IKEA Conshohocken Sales Steer and Supply Leader Troy Masse, seeing President Barack Obama take office as the first African American President made him feel like anything was possible. Is there a moment in time you saw real progress in the fight for racial equality?
Black History Month may be in February, but every day it’s important to recognize, honor and celebrate Black history. IKEA Brooklyn Inventory Specialist Dorothea Bennett does just that.
At IKEA, we keep people and our planet top of mind 24/7. 🌎 That’s why we’ve used sustainably sourced cotton in our products since 2015. Whether the cotton is recycled or grown with less water and chemical usage, small changes like these help make a big impact in our fight against climate change.
