TUFF SHED Quality Work Environment
TUFF SHED strives to provide employees with a positive and healthy work environment. This environment is fostered through:
- All The Basics (i.e. 401k, health and welfare benefits, competitive pay, paid time off, drug-free workplace)
- Change Management
- Employee Access to All Levels of Management
- Safety
Examples of Creating a Quality Work Environment
- TUFF SHED understands the importance of communications. That's why the company has established communications tools to facilitate the sharing of policies, company news and even best practices. A regularly published newsletter and company intranet provides employees up to date information, and staff of employees at the corporate office provide support and clarification to store employees with questions about policies, benefits, etc.
- TUFF SHED has developed a store safety program designed to reduce job-related accidents. Product innovations have even resulted from efforts to reduce employee health and safety risks. The development of the steel floor joist is an example of one such innovation, as senior management did not like the idea of company builders handling treated lumber products.
