our communities
Responsibility and community involvement at Assurant span three levels of engagement:
corporate, local and personal. We take very seriously our role in enhancing the quality of
life in the communities where we live and work. We donate money to worthy causes, but
perhaps more importantly, we like to act. Assurant’s volunteer time off program provides each
employee one paid day off annually to volunteer for community projects and activities.
“A part of us.”
