The broadened initiative sits at the heart of Whirlpool Corporation's global corporate social responsibility approach called House + Home, that contributes to comfortable and nurturing places to live and supports resilient, thriving, and sustainable communities.

  • 2020 ANNUAL REPORT Our Response to COVID-19
    2020 ANNUAL REPORT Our Response to COVID-19 During the COVID-19 pandemic, the health and safety of our employees has always been our top priority. We continue to deliver our essential products to consumers and focus on business operations in the face of the pandemic. Those efforts include continuing to keep plants operating, employees safe, and position Whirlpool Corporation to win in the eventual recovery. ► CARING FOR OUR EMPLOYEES Employee safety is our number one priority at Whirlpool Corporation, and we responded early with a Global Coronavirus Task Force that met daily to assess developments, communicate health and safety guidance, and address employee questions. We increased safety measures at all manufacturing plants and expanded flexible work policies for all employees able to work from home. Our plants were quick to make adjustments in the face of COVID-19—in some cases within 24 hours. Through the World Class Manufacturing system, it was possible to quickly institute COVID-19 protocols. This was reinforced with a continued commitment from our people within all our plants around the globe to exercise safety protocols on a daily basis. These measures still consist of regular temperature checks, six-foot social distancing, increased routine cleaning in work and other areas, and an emphasis on individual accountability for all of our employees. CARING FOR OUR CONSUMERS We established plans to ensure our consumers had our trusted appliances to improve life at home with their families, knowing they depend on our home appliances more than ever to clean, cook and provide proper food and medicine storage. Service and support continued with strict health and safety processes in place, along with contactless delivery in most regions across our operations.
