3 Cheers for Jeans Day! During the last two Fridays of each month, employees are invited to wear jeans for a minimum $5 donation. Many employees look forward to dressing down and supporting worthy charities in the process. Employees throughout the company are encouraged to make suggestions on which organizations to support and the Dearborn Office's Executive Assistant keeps a list, ensuring each one is included throughout the year. In 2018, EDSI donated $6,200 to these 12 charities, including:
Kids Making It
National Kidney Foundation
Cancer Foundation
Options for Women
Dreams for Kids
American Diabetes Association
National Ovarian Cancer Coalition
Hope Station
Cape Fear Volunteer Center
Harrisburg Inspiring Connections Outdoors
Quality Health Africa
UNICEF
In 2019, 12 more worthy charities will benefit from the generosity of our employees who participate in the Jeans Day program.

We are humbled to announce that EDSI has been named a Top Workplaces award honoree by The Detroit Free Press for the fourth year in a row. Thank you to our dedicated employees who helped us earn this distinction, and congratulations to all the other winners!

We’ve done it again … three years and counting! EDSI has been honored with a 2018 When Work Works Award for exemplary workplace practices. Sincere thanks goes out to our incredible team members … two-thirds of our score was based on a survey of our employees.

In applying for the award, EDSI was evaluated on factors associated with employee health, well-being and engagement: opportunities for learning; a culture of trust; work-life fit; supervisor support for work success; autonomy; and satisfaction with earnings, benefits and opportunities for advancement

The prestigious When Work Works Award is part of the Society for Human Resource Management’s (SHRM’s) When Work Works project, a national initiative that helps employers become more successful by transforming the way they view and adopt effective and flexible workplaces.
