DETROIT, MI, UNITED STATES, August 25, 2020 /EINPresswire.com/ -- John Hancock, U.S.A., is a Boston-based insurance company. Established April 21, 1862, it was named in honor of John Hancock, a prominent patriot. They offer transparent financial advice tailored to unique financial needs through retirement planning, investments, financial solutions, and innovative life insurance, for individuals and business enterprises. In 2004, John Hancock was acquired by the Canadian life insurance company Manulife Financial. The company and the majority of Manulife’s U.S. assets continue to operate under the John Hancock name. John Hancock’s mission is making decisions easier and lives better for all their customers. They are equally committed to making a positive impact on the communities where we live and work. John Hancock has a passionate and experienced team of professionals united by their dedication to uphold their company mission and values.

John Hancock, and their parent company Manulife, place importance on finding business partners who share their commitment to excellence and believe that supplier diversity can positively impact the workplace, business partners, and the communities where they do business. They are committed to maintaining a diverse supplier base that provides a broad range of perspective, skills, and experience, in addition to quality and cost effectiveness.

As part of their commitment, John Hancock supports purchases from a qualified and diverse supplier base recognizing the importance of businesses owned by minorities, women, LGBT, people with disabilities, veterans, and service-disabled veterans. Businesses eligible for diversity status must be at least 51% owned, controlled and operated by men and/or women who fall in these categories.

John Hancock selects suppliers through a competitive bidding process. They set high standards of performance for themselves and the products and services they produce. They expect the same from their suppliers, in areas such as quality, responsiveness and service commitments. They look for companies who understand and demonstrate the importance of being socially responsible by making a difference through servicing local communities as well as build their value through active management of the economic, social and environmental impact. They want to partner with suppliers who are willing to work toward continuous improvement and more efficient products and services.

“We choose to partner with diverse suppliers who understand advancing representation of all types of diversity remains vital to driving a truly inclusive supply base.”
Said By: Phil Hirsh, Supplier Diversity Officer
