To educate the New Hire on the company’s culture, process, procedures, and other general information

New Hire Communication (email)…
Greetings Jane Doe,
The Valspar Team would like to extend our congratulations to you, on your appointment as Generalist here in our Human Resources Department. There are many attributes to Valspar's culture. Above all, employee safety and integrity guide our actions.
We asked some of our employees to share their perspective of the Valspar culture and the type of employee that is successful at the company. Here is a sample of some of these key cultural attributes, in our employees' own words:
• Above everything else, our company places the utmost emphasis on doing business ethically and with the highest integrity.
• We place a high emphasis on the safety and well-being of our employees.
• There is an "open door policy" at all levels of the organization.
• Our people are passionate, driven, hard-working and full of energy.
• People are recognized for initiative and being proactive.
With a slogan...
