JOURNEY TOGETHER
Kevin Welch, our CEO, has a philosophy of wanting “everyone to be happy.” This happiness has no end, no barriers, and no favorites. Our Journey Together board leads initiatives to bring about happiness by making Journey, and everyone around us, better.
Journey Payroll & HR strives to be inclusive—fostering an environment of belonging and respect in the workplace. We believe that everyone should have the same opportunities in life, regardless of personal aspects like gender identity, race, family or economic status, or ethnicity.
We value diversity and want to ensure our work environment is a safe and comfortable place for all. In addition, we advocate that other businesses do the same.
This mindset is at the backbone of our philosophy of “Humanizing the Workplace.”

Journey Together's Month-to-Month Focus
Every month we have chosen a focus area to acknowledge and increase awareness of a variety of diverse heritages, vocations, identities, and important practices. Many of these are federally recognized. We’ve designated others out of our desire to be better together—articulating support, intentionally understanding, and exercising compassion.
