It's probably unnecessary to even mention them as a separate group (maybe that's something that came out of the legal department) but I think it shouldn't be a distraction to the overall message, which is that you can lay out what you want a company's culture to be, and share that philosophy easily and publicly.

To me, adding the qualifier "our hourly employees are important, BUT..." kind of kills the buzz for me. I don't understand the point they're trying to make; to me it just comes off as you don't matter unless you're salaried, which really irks me. Am I misinterpreting this or something?

Straightforward, easy to read, balanced professional and personal messages, easy to relate to, and something that gives me pause about how I communicate my company's values. This is great.
