INCLUSION & DIVERSITY
Our inclusive culture welcomes everyone and their ideas.
At AAON, we recognize and empower each team member with their unique experiences and talents.
By hiring, developing, and promoting a diverse workforce, we lead change in our industry.
Together, we can make an impact that stretches beyond our walls.
Our success is linked to the well-being of our communities, and we apply our assets and resources to help them thrive. More than designers and engineers of sustainable, energy-efficient HVAC solutions — we are mentors, advocates, and benefactors in the cities where we live and work.
Only through the dedication of our people can we pave the way for a better tomorrow.
Inclusion in Action
We strive to create an inclusive community where everyone feels a sense of belonging and respect, regardless of their background, identity, or beliefs.
