More About Careers at ILI
At ILI, we are committed to our employees. Employees have access to competitive benefits and opportunities for industry specific continuing education. ILI is committed to offering a living wage to all employees and we strive to maintain an equitable and enriching environment for everyone who works here.
We don’t just say we are an equal opportunity employer. We are a woman owned and run business committed to offering equal pay for equal work and the opportunity to excel to all employees regardless of sex, gender, race, ethnicity, color, national origin, sexual orientation, creed, age, disability, or any other characteristic that could be used to discriminate against employees or applicants.
We believe that one of the best ways to support our employees is to make sure ILI is an asset to the communities we all share. Our decisions and practices directly impact the people and communities around us, so we strive to make our impact a positive one. Whenever possible, we source our goods and services from locally owned and operated businesses. All of our senior management lives within driving distance of our Delano, Minnesota location, ensuring that our key decision makers always keep local issues in mind.
ILI constantly seeks opportunities to create positive impacts that make our communities and the world better with every product we sell. We focus heavily on sustainability. We are currently performing Life Cycle Assessments of our products and reducing our energy, water, and chemical footprints. We are on track to reduce our waste to landfill by more than 50%. We promote sustainable practices throughout our supply chain by requesting vendors complete a sustainability questionnaire and provide preference to vendors that share our commitment. We provide information about the materials we use in our products and promote transparency throughout the industry with active participation in several sustainability-focused non profit organizations. Our sunshades even qualify as a Living Product, a product that enriches human life and the environment across its entire life cycle and demonstrates incredible functionality according to the Living Product Challenge Requirements as provided by the International Living Futures Institute.
