Culture of Caring

Our Culture of Caring

Protecting property ownership is only one way our employees make a difference in our communities. Here at Stewart, we care for the communities we live in and serve. From company culture, customer service, to community and sustainability initiatives, our Culture of Caring stretches across the globe.

“We take immense pride in keeping our employees safe and engaged, and in ensuring their business and well-being needs are met; they’re treated equally, fairly and with respect; and they’re appreciated often.” – Emily Kain, Chief Human Resources Officer

Everyone Seen. Everyone Heard. Everyone Celebrated.

With the establishment of our Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DE&I) Committee, Stewart is committed to representing, supporting and serving marginalized communities and groups with clear action in our recruitment, outreach and service processes. We strive to provide everyone the opportunity to succeed while valuing the strength our different perspectives and experiences foster.

We celebrate the LGBTQ community not only during Pride Month but throughout the year.
