2021 Owens Corning Sustainability Report | Expanding Our Social Handprint | Inclusion & Diversity | 221 Connections Goal: To enrich the lives of our employees by partnering with those in career transition, while fostering personal and professional growth and promoting community involvement to attract and retain top talent. In 2021, the Connections affinity group continued to host the Toledo Tomorrow series, offering employees opportunities to interact with people and groups working to improve Toledo, Ohio, U.S. — home to Owens Corning’s world headquarters — through community involvement and events. In May, the group was instrumental in bringing a celebration of Asian culture to our world headquarters. Interfaith Exchange Goal: To provide a path for employees to share their beliefs with each other in a way that allows each distinct voice to be included, appreciated, and valued. In 2021, the Interfaith Exchange presented a wide range of events, including book clubs, interfaith dialogues, prayer sessions, and presentations about specific faith traditions. In addition, the group posts information about a range of holy days throughout the year on the company’s internal social media platform. “Connections aspires to create fulfillment by offering a sense of belonging and encouraging inclusivity. With the ways in which our world and work have changed, the group is continuing to evolve its mission and purpose so it can provide meaningful and inclusive collaboration, networking, and connection where it’s difficult to gather in person.” – Brandon Purk, human resources leader “The Interfaith Exchange was implemented at a time when employees needed it most. People have been able to move into their faith or belief system in a way that promotes prayer among co-workers, impactful faith education, and topical dialogues. Employees express respect and genuine love as we grow deeper in our faith in a way that cares for all employees, regardless of what they believe.” – Wendy Sabo, pricing operations and controls leader Mosaic Goal: To enlighten our employees on cultural differences, foster diverse solutions, and enhance our business relationships all around the world, strengthening our company’s growth agenda. In July, Mosaic hosted its first Culture Quest, a weeklong virtual event highlighting many cultures through interactive activities. Events focused on music, dance, food, drinks, and other cultural dimensions. The group intends to make this an annual event. OUTreach Goal: To achieve a work environment that is inclusive and safe, where people feel they can be fully engaged to create and problem- solve to their maximum potential and can be confident in a work environment where they will be fairly evaluated. In addition to promoting LGBTQ+ events in several U.S. cities throughout Pride Month, OUTreach celebrated International Transgender Day of Visibility by hosting a virtual panel discussion with three members of the transgender community. Through OUTreach, Owens Corning took part in the 2021 #AllyChallenge, a unique initiative from Pride Circle, an India-based organization that empowers LGBTQ+ individuals around the world. OUTreach was also instrumental in the March 2021 effort to encourage employees to add their pronouns to their email signatures, helping create a more inclusive environment for transgender and gender-diverse employees. “Mosaic is a group of diverse and energized people who form a stronger whole together. Our 2021 events saw us learn from each other’s experiences, strengthen appreciation for diverse cultures within Owens Corning, support our local community, and provide a space for laughter and camaraderie during challenging times. Mosaic has made Owens Corning more inclusive.” – Vanessa Burkard, insulation procurement team leader “OUTreach has real impacts on our employees and communities, as well as Owens Corning’s policies and public stances. In 2021, our efforts led to Owens Corning signing on to Ohio Business Competes to influence policy throughout Ohio. We were also founding members of Northwest Ohio LGBTQ+ Coalition, created to share best practices for LGBTQ employee groups and create an inclusive environment in Northwest Ohio.” – Lindsey Kauffman, circular economy lead
