What We Do

• Diversity: We recognize our strength comes from every employee’s unique attributes. Diversity encompasses, but is not limited to, national origin, language, race, color, disability, ethnicity, gender, age, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, socioeconomic status, veteran status, and family structures.
• Equity: We routinely recognize opportunities to enhance equity and redistribute power. Washington law clearly enshrines the right to be free from discrimination because of race, creed, color, national origin, citizenship or immigration status, sex, military status, sexual orientation, or disability. (RCW 49.60.030; RCW 49.60.400). In Washington, equity means creating access to opportunity and eliminating barriers so that all people can have the opportunity, through hard work and access, to thrive and flourish. (RCW 43.06D.020).
• Inclusion: We consider the thoughts, ideas and perspectives of all OFM staff as a key component of our decision making.
• Belonging: We engage the full potential of individuals by inviting them to be their whole authentic selves, and to integrate their views, beliefs and values into their work so that innovation thrives.

We conduct ourselves ethically, hold ourselves accountable, and we encourage clear and honest communication as we work with customers, stakeholders and coworkers.

We create value for our employees and customers by thinking outside the box and trying new things. We aren’t afraid to fail, and we strive to learn from our failures.

We promote teamwork and partnerships, drawing on the experience of those impacted by our decisions so we can achieve common goals.

We define and demonstrate best practices, which lead to high-performance and consistent value for customers and employees. We are passionate about continuous improvement and look for efficiencies in everything we do.
