understand the connection between their individual
performance and Unum’s overall success. We know that
to remain competitive in today’s business environment
while also enhancing our ability to meet the needs of our
customers we must continually challenge ourselves to
raise the bar for performance. For that reason, we’ve recently
placed an ever greater focus on employee leadership by
reinforcing the understanding that leadership, and not just
tangible results, is a key component of performance. We’ve
also increased our focus on providing our management
team with the resources to help lead this company into
the future.
Last, we continue to create a positive work environment
for our employees through our focus on things like wellness
and healthy work-life balance. We’re pleased that employee
engagement remains at a high level, according to our work
environment surveys, and that our commitment to employees
has earned Unum such accolades as a “Best Place to Work
