This mindset pushes us to look at construction through a wider lens — to consider the needs of our clients, our people, and our community members. It’s why we’ve adopted some of the most forward-looking programs in the industry. Through this viewpoint, Scott’s pillars help guide our principles, inspire our outreach, and maximize our positive impact.
Social Responsibility
At Scott Construction, we are committed to aligning with the world around us, ensuring that our actions reflect our values and vision. As a Certified B Corp, we recognize the importance of using business as a force for good. Our Impact Committee drives this purpose by identifying and implementing meaningful goals and initiatives. This committee ensures we remain accountable for creating positive change across the communities we serve and the planet we share.
Locally, we support charities by sharing our construction expertise, empowering aspiring construction professionals through student programs, and donating to organizations that assist those in need. We also encourage our team members to give back by offering paid time off to volunteer.
Globally, we’ve partnered with organizations like Climate Smart to track, measure, and achieve environmental targets. This includes reducing waste, cutting energy usage, and offsetting our carbon footprint.
By combining local action with a global mindset, Scott Construction is proud to be a leader in making a meaningful impact—today and for the future.
Solutions-Based Leadership
Considering the needs of our community starts with an engaged team of construction professionals. Our cross-functional teams take an active role in driving project decisions through a solution-seeking approach and in influencing industry growth by advancing proactive building practices such as LEED and other sustainability certifications, Passive House, modular, and mass timber projects. Our uniqueness is in how we deliver projects and manage risks through collaboration, focusing on building lasting relationships.
Workplace Safety
Safety is at the forefront of every member, on every job, every day. Period. This emphasis on safety is necessary for our industry, but it’s our collaborative approach that takes our programs to another level. We tailor safety to the needs of every job and appoint a dedicated safety officer to every site because it’s our responsibility to get everyone home safe.
Employee Experience & Support
Creating a positive employee experience is foundational, and we formally measure our employee engagement and culture every year. Through this, we listen to the feedback from our team to continue to strengthen their work experience. As an example, feedback has strengthened our approach to professional development and personal well-being. This collaborative perspective on employee support is a key reason why we’re able to hire, grow, and retain the best industry talent.
Employee-led committees are how Scott innovates culture. Along with our ESG committee, Scott’s Mental Health Committee is led by members from across our organization to support mental health topics that are key to our team. The committee focuses on communication, education and external resources support on topics ranging from substance abuse education, family mental wellness to physical wellbeing challenges.
