²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵAPP

The ²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵAPP Companies proudly participated in the nationally recognized Construction Inclusion Week held from October 16-20. This industry-wide initiative aims to raise awareness to improve diversity and inclusion in the construction sector — a commitment the company is dedicated to fostering.

Sharing with each other the different ways we can be inclusive helps to empower each team member to reach their full potential, fueling innovation and connection with coworkers, clients, and the communities we serve. Each day, during morning stretches, a new topic was introduced and discussed companywide at our job sites and facilities. The topics covered were: commitment and accountability, belonging, supplier diversity, workplace culture, and community engagement. As one team, we concluded the week by kicking off a company-wide food drive. Job site teams across the company collected food to be donated to those in need during the holiday season in their local communities.

We are an equal opportunity employer, a principal we proudly demonstrate each day of the year. Construction Inclusion Week gave us the opportunity to join with our peers in the industry to raise awareness that we value relationships with others willing to work toward mutual goals and mutual prosperity.

For our industry to successfully attract and retain future team members, and expand the diversity of our suppliers, it is imperative that we create a culture that values and respects the differences among individuals, strives for fairness, and actively includes everyone.

We are looking forward to participating in this important initiative again next year and we encourage more industry peers to join us. Through collaboration and a firm commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion, we can make a meaningful impact and drive positive change for the future, ensuring a workplace culture that values and respects the unique contributions of every team member.
