Celebrate Every Flavor

At Oregon Ice Cream, diversity isn’t just a buzzword—it’s integral to our success. Our commitment to inclusivity ensures that everyone, regardless of background, identity, or abilities, is valued and empowered to contribute. Our core value of “Welcome Everyone” ensures our door is always open to embrace diverse perspectives. We celebrate diversity in all its forms, recognizing its broad-spectrum of identities, including but not limited to race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, religion, age, socio-economic status, disability, and neurodiversity. Equity drives our dedication to fair opportunities and the dismantling of barriers. Inclusion is our active effort to foster belonging, promoting openness, empathy, and mutual respect. These principles guide our policies, practices, and decision-making, ensuring continuous learning and commitment to diversity. Together, we create a community where everyone feels welcomed, supported, and empowered to thrive.

Our Commitment in Action:

Community Engagement and Outreach: We actively engage with and support diverse communities through various outreach initiatives, sponsorships, and partnerships. This includes participating in local events, supporting diversity-focused nonprofits, and providing volunteer opportunities for employees to give back to the community.

Flexible Work Arrangements: When possible, we offer flexible work arrangements, such as remote work options and flexible hours to accommodate diverse needs and lifestyles. This allows employees to better balance their professional and personal responsibilities, contributing to a more inclusive and supportive work environment.

Regular Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Assessments: We conduct regular assessments to evaluate the effectiveness of our DEI initiatives, gather feedback from employees on their experiences, and identify areas for improvement. These assessments help us track progress and adjust strategies as needed so we can continue to implement our commitment to diversity and inclusion.

Diversity and Inclusion Training for Leadership: We provide specialized training for leaders and managers to equip them with the skills and knowledge needed to foster inclusive teams, address bias in decision-making processes, and promote a culture of belonging and respect.
