At Balfour Beatty Construction, people and communities are at the heart of our business. We deliver more than $3.4 billion each year in one-of-a-kind buildings that enhance people’s lives and alter the landscape of our communities and our nation. We represent the needs, expectations, and visions of our clients and help turn that vision into reality through our partnership with specialty contractors, architects, community leaders, corporate boards, and project neighbors. Our people – 2,400 construction professionals – are the means by which we deliver. They are our only – therefore most precious – asset.
Our highest concern must be safety – protecting the well-being not only of our own people but of everyone we come into contact with. Our Zero Harm program is the boldest safety initiative in the history of the construction industry, and asserts there is no acceptable risk on any project.
Our sustainability as a business depends on how successfully we recruit, develop, and motivate our people, so this must also be a priority. Top talent drives our success, so we work to ensure that our people have opportunities to grow and maximize their potential.
We, and our customers, also recognize that we have a responsibility to the local communities in which we live and work. So we seek to make a long-term contribution to society through our community investment as well as the infrastructure we create.
For us, creating healthy communities means:
- Engaging all Balfour Beatty Construction people in the Sustainability program
- Partnering with our supply chains to deliver sustainable solutions
- Improving the quality of life for our people and our communities
