The Garden Center is an equal opportunity employer who understands that each employee adds value to the team, the business, and the community.
A voluntary affirmative action plan (AAP) is utilized as a self-analysis to ensure the diversity of the Garden Center. The AAP will provide a workforce analysis for each department identifying demographics, title, and pay level for each individual. The analysis provides an overview of the current workforce while identifying areas that need to be addressed in terms of utilization or distribution of protected class workers, personnel activities, the compensation systems, and selection, recruitment, and referral procedures. The AAP details goals, action-oriented programs, and the implementation process (Walsh, 2016).
The company’s mission statement of “Our goal is to be a prosperous and valuable garden center that helps the community put the "green" back into everyday life.” and the vision statement “Our purpose is to be a knowledge resource to our community and clients with the best earth friendly garden products at a fair price.” motivates the Garden Center’s leadership to offer the work place for the members of the community.
