Company Updates

2019 was a big year for our Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) with the launch of BBOLD and BPROUD. Our now five ERGs are made up of 1,476 teammates and 40 executives. In 2019, 400+ ERG members volunteered 1,061 hours in the communities where we move, live, work and play. We're excited to see what our ERGs have in store for 2020.

We are working to extend mobility, improve safety and increase efficiency around the globe. Get an inside look at the innovations we had on display at #CES2020 to improve the way people move, live, work and play. #BridgestoneCES

If you're considering a career move to an organization dedicated to developing its employees, Bridgestone is the place for you. Rhiannon Torres says, “As an area manager, it’s very important to me and my team to sit down and talk about their succession plan and developing them within the organization, finding out where their path lies and what their interests are.” #BeBridgestone http://glassdoor.com/slink.htm?key=vMcBq

It’s Career & Development Week at our Nashville and Akron offices. During this week, teammates have the opportunity to attend workshops about navigating their careers at Bridgestone, how to have career conversations, and building a development plan. Career growth and development is an important initiative and part of what it means to #BeBridgestone.

This week our teammates helped the United Way of Metropolitan Nashville #StuffTheBus by filling over 12,000 backpacks full of school supplies for Metro Nashville Public Schools students. Thank you to our teammates for donating, sorting supplies and stuffing backpacks! #OurWaytoServe #BeBridgestone

We are working to continually improve natural resource conservation. At Bridgestone, we have a variety of programs focused on recycling tires, including Bridgestone Costa Rica's B-happy Eco-Parks where we use end-of life trees to build playgrounds in parks and education centers. #WorldEnvironmentDay

The Bridgestone Aiken Off-Road Tire Plant was recently awarded LEED certification by the U.S. Green Building Council.
