Embracing sustainability principles and tying them to our core purpose and values helps us be a healthy, growing and diverse company.
We each have a role to play in implementing our core philosophy and we make a difference one project at time by offering sustainable solutions to the clients we serve. We extend that commitment internally by following an action-based Sustainability Plan to lessen the SEH carbon footprint on our world and in achieving our core purpose of Building a Better World for All of Us®.
Our focus is in three main areas:
- Employee Involvement: Engage and inform employees on ways to be more sustainable.
