Our Impact

Inclusion Commitment

Through our Gilbane Cares philosophy and Core Values, we work together to create an inclusive culture, work environment, and business model that leverages the capabilities of our diverse employee population, vendors, and trade contractors in order to deliver greater value for our employees, clients, and our communities.

Belonging

We believe an inclusive workforce that stimulates effectiveness, productivity, creativity, and innovation.

GIlbane’s employee resource groups (ERGs) are employee-led teams that create a space for people to problem-solve, innovate, develop, and showcase their leadership skills. All employees are welcomed to join any ERG.

Over 45% of team members participate in our employee resource groups.

Maximizing Community Impact & Engagement

Commitment to community engagement today means a more equitable, robust construction landscape tomorrow. Gilbane seeks to maximize participation by diverse and small businesses and to have a diverse, local workforce on our construction projects.

Governance at Gilbane

Every employee should be treated with respect, dignity, and courtesy. Gilbane is committed to providing its employees with work environments that are free from inappropriate behavior, discrimination, harassment, and unlawful workplace practices. Likewise, through our Code of Ethics, we establish clear expectations and standards for our employees’ ethical behavior in a manner that reflects our Core Value of Integrity.

We believe that it is equally important for our partners, subcontractors, and vendors to understand our requirements, and that they follow the highest ethical standards outlined in our Supplier Code of Conduct. We have also established a system of checks and balances to manage our operations and to ensure compliance with our standards. Ultimately, our goal is to safeguard our employees, clients, partners, assets, and operations while ensuring the highest quality of service.

Board of Directors

Gilbane’s Board of Directors plays a critical role in our corporate governance structure, ensuring adherence to the highest business standards. Our Board includes world-class, independent directors whose extensive expertise enables us to support our employees, clients, and shareholders.

The Board embodies our Core Values and provides oversight and guidance to promote a strong ethical standard and a unified “One Company” approach in everything we do.

Audit and Accountability

Gilbane is committed to objective oversight of compliance and accountability through our Ethics and Compliance Program. The Audit, Ethics and Safety Committee consists of outside Board members who inform the framework of Gilbane’s Internal Audit Department.

One of their main objectives is bringing a systematic and disciplined approach to evaluate and improve the effectiveness of Gilbane’s risk management, governance, and
internal controls.

Ethics, Compliance, and Trainings

Gilbane’s workplace compliance trainings are designed to help employees understand the company’s standards and expectations so that we can operate at an optimal level. Workplace laws and regulations constantly evolve; therefore it is critically important to keep up to date with trainings.

Resiliency through Cybersecurity

Gilbane considers the privacy and security of its clients, partners, and employees as paramount. We have adopted and implemented security practices designed to protect the confidentiality and integrity of our clients’ and partners’ information.

Gilbane follows a risk reduction strategy by deploying cybersecurity safeguards in technical, operational, and policy environments, even as we adopt and implement new technologies to gain new efficiencies and cost savings for our customer community.

Investing in Our People

The heart of Gilbane is our people. Since our founding, every project, innovation and important milestone has been made possible through investing in our people. For two decades, our award-winning Gilbane University (GU) has provided our employees with targeted skill building and development.
