With Independence Day right around the corner, Bastian Solutions' WIT group would like to wish you a happy and safe 4th of July! #WIT #Celebrate #4thofJuly Bastian Solutions

At Bastian, #SafetyFirst is ingrained in our culture. As such, our teams are trained to wear the appropriate PPE for each task at hand. It can be hard to find safety gear that meets the necessary certifications while also being stylish. As far as eyewear goes, Stoggles offers safety glasses with different lens shapes and color options while meeting the ANSI Z87.1-2020 certification. Reviews of Stoggles are favorable, with some noting that sizing can run a little small. We found this comparison between Stoggles and Machinist Safety glasses interesting.

For the next WIT spotlight, we'd like to recognize Emma O. Emma is a Project Engineer based out of Bastian’s headquarters office in Indianapolis. She primarily works in leading and supporting project design from start to finish and is proud to work with the company’s vendors and internal teams to come up with the best possible system solution. When asked about her favorite thing about Bastian, Emma was sure to point out the team she works with along with when she is able to get into the field to see results of her work. When she isn’t drawing conveyor layouts, creating approval sets for customers or detailing equipment, you can find her rock climbing, having game nights with her friends or exploring parts of town she has never been to. Thank you for all that you do, Emma! . . . #WIT #spotlight #engineer #manufacturing #makeanimpact #lifeatbastiansolutions #thankyou

With our #SafetyFirst mindset at Bastian Solutions, steel toed boots are a staple for all of our WIT members who find themselves on jobsites. Recently, one of our WIT members came across, Xena Workwear, a footwear business focused on combining both safety and fashion. Founder and CEO Ana Kraft says, "Working as a project engineer I was frustrated by the lack of professional work boot options that were available to women. My steel-toe shoes were really bulky, clearly designed for men who have anatomically different feet. So I decided to develop work boots to help women feel safe and confident. Safety doesn't have to compromise. Fashion can work." Check out their website to support a woman owned business: https://lnkd.in/g69ZPc_m #womenintech #steeltoes #fashionablesteeltoes

Were you able to catch a glimpse of the #SolarEclipse yesterday?!

For #InternationalWomensDay (IWD), Bastian Solutions' WIT group hosted a training session for Bastian employees, focusing on the reasons we celebrate international women's day, showcasing testimonials from members and allies on what WIT means to them, and introducing new ways to get involved. As part of the IWD celebration and back by popular demand, over 100 personalized notes of appreciation for women within our organization were collected and distributed. To continue to celebrate women beyond the IWD event, Bastian WIT has begun the collection of wish-list items for five local non-profits, including clothing, hygiene products, food, and household items to give back to our communities. #womenintech #technology
