Social Responsibility
Investing in Our People
We prioritize creating an inclusive culture that fosters creativity, embraces diverse perspectives, and supports the health and well-being of our employees.
Employee Health and Well-Being
Our commitment to employee wellness is demonstrated through various programs designed to promote physical, mental, and financial well-being. We prioritize health and well-being through our robust corporate responsibility policies and offer comprehensive health and safety training programs for all employees.
Growth and Professional Development
We champion opportunities for career growth and professional development, including an expansive online library of courses, tuition assistance programs, paid internships, annual performance reviews, and reimbursement for tuition and certifications.
Enhancing Employee Benefits
We provide access to high-quality resources for our employees and their families to support their overall health. This includes mental wellness support, programs that promote healthy lifestyles and reduce stress, along with financial education.
Fostering an Inclusive Culture
Our Inclusion Office leads our enterprise inclusion strategy, fostering a more inclusive culture and promoting opportunity. We aim to create an environment where all people feel welcomed, valued, respected, safe, and heard. We collaborate with other companies to promote inclusivity and safety through initiatives like the Leadership Pledge to Address Systemic Racism.
Prioritizing Safety
Employee Safety
We value a supportive and safe work environment that encourages diverse and innovative ideas. We emphasize a safety-first approach, incorporating cutting-edge programs and tools to ensure employee well-being and readiness.
Rewarding Safe Driving
Safe driving is a top priority for our drivers. We established the J.B. Hunt Million Mile Program to honor drivers who have driven one million miles or more without a preventable collision. Drivers who achieve two million or more safe driving miles are invited to corporate headquarters for a multi-day celebration as part of our ongoing commitment to safety.
Strengthening Communities
We have a long-standing partnership with the University of Arkansas, collaborating on various initiatives to shape the future of supply chain management. After five years of support, the Sam M. Walton College of Business Program for Supply Chain Management was named the J.B. Hunt Transport Department of Supply Chain Management. Through projects, internships, and scholarships, we are working together to create a more inclusive and sustainable supply chain industry.
We are committed to supporting and engaging with our veteran community. Through various initiatives and programs, we aim to provide opportunities and resources for veterans to thrive in their careers and personal lives. Our efforts include targeted hiring initiatives, skills training, and support services tailored to the unique needs of veterans transitioning to civilian life.
We recognize the importance of supporting the education and development of future generations. Our New Elite Scholarship Program for Families provides financial assistance to eligible employees’ family members pursuing higher education. This program aims to remove barriers to education and empower families to achieve their academic and professional goals.
As a responsible corporate citizen, we believe in giving back to the communities we serve. Through our Company Giving initiatives, we support various charitable organizations, community projects, and causes that align with our values and priorities. Our employees are encouraged to volunteer their time and expertise to make a positive impact on the lives of others.
Our Adopt-a-Class Program fosters meaningful connections between our company and local schools. Through this initiative, our employees volunteer their time and resources to support and mentor students in underserved communities. By adopting a class, we aim to provide academic support, mentorship, and enrichment opportunities to help students succeed in their educational journeys and unlock their full potential.
