Diversity, Equity & Inclusion
A commitment to building a more equitable, diverse, and inclusive workplace every day.
Every Voice is Valued
At WIN Waste Innovations, we understand how important diversity and inclusion is to our employees, our customers, and the planet. Each and every employee is committed to our diversity and inclusion mission statement.
Diversity & Inclusion Mission Statement
We strive every day to be the most diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplace in our industry. A place where we act boldly as one, dynamic team to deliver essential, superior waste and recycling solutions.
Our Mission & Culture
Delivering the most reliable and sustainable waste and recycling solutions to our customers and community starts by working together to create an open, honest, and transparent culture where all should be treated equally and without bias. A diverse, equitable, and inclusive culture is a winning culture and a critical cornerstone to our company’s success now and in the future.
Our values guide how we create a workplace that celebrates different voices and opinions, evaluates each person on their merit, and comes together to be a positive influence on each other and our communities.
We accept everyone for who they are, no matter race, gender, or background. We know that our differences are crucial to our success, and we listen before acting.

We are proud to receive New Hampshire Department of Education’s 2023 Employment Leadership Award, in recognition of our efforts to build a more diverse workforce and inclusive culture.
One Team, Driving Change
We know living up to this mission requires more than just words — it means each one of us must do more today than we did yesterday to create an open and transparent culture. And it means transforming our hiring, training, and mentoring to ensure each voice is valued and heard. WIN Waste Innovations' D&I Council works closely with senior leaders to integrate diversity and inclusion into our operations and business strategy to drive accountability, share progress, and accelerate real change.
Celebrating Diversity
We strive to make WIN Waste an inclusive workplace that celebrates different perspectives and backgrounds. In addition to recognizing a wide variety of religious and cultural holidays in our company calendar, we also take the time to highlight various groups and movements each month, including Black History Month and Pride.
Diversity Recruiting
We believe diversity recruiting is an essential part of an effective inclusion strategy. That’s why we’ve begun scouting more diversity in every department of our company, from waste collection to engineering. Explore some of our current recruiting initiatives below to see how we’re making progress possible.
Special Recognition
While our diversity and inclusion work is just beginning, we’re already getting noticed. WIN Waste was recently honored with a Rising Star Award by University of New Hampshire. Awards like these are just one small part of our continued push toward building a more equitable future.
Making Opportunities More Accessible
Creating employment opportunities for people with disabilities is another important diversity initiative we’re taking on. We recently embarked on a 12-week partnership with the state of New Hampshire designed to give people with disabilities a path to employment in our call center. WIN Waste was just one of several companies participating in this vocational internship program across the state of New Hampshire.
Eyes on the Future
While we’re proud of the work we’ve done in our diversity and inclusion program, we know that we have a long way to go toward making WIN Waste Innovations the most inclusive company it can be. We’re looking forward to continuing to do the work required to make our employees, leadership, and the communities we serve proud of our progress.
That’s why we’re rolling out some exciting new programs this year, including increased diversity recruitment, new networking programs, and unconscious bias training for all employees.
