We're ensuring our firm's sustainable development and contributing to more sustainable industries. Our goals help illuminate the environmental, social and governance (ESG) topics that are most material to our business and of interest to our stakeholders.
"Companies like ours must look beyond meeting financial objectives — we have the power to make a difference, and with that, have a social responsibility to improve the world. This is more than simply saying if we understand our customers and improve the community, we will be more successful. Our actions are based on our vision, which is to make a significant positive contribution to the world."
— Pete DiMaggio, Co-CEO
Designing for a better world is the future of our industry. To be the global driver of change and innovation in our industry, we must demonstrate that design professionals can solve the most challenging social and environmental problems through our work.
Our best opportunity to demonstrate positive environment and social impact lies in areas where we can have the greatest contribution, based on our knowledge and talent, and where we can apply our ingenuity.
Through our Sustainability practice and our adoption of the Architecture 2030 Challenge, Thornton Tomasetti is an active participant in reducing emissions from climate change. We engage our employees in the global effort to mitigate and adapt to climate change by practicing what we preach through our internal policies and behaviours.
Everyone at Thornton Tomasetti is empowered to change our industry. We know diversity drives innovation, so we will et and achieve targeted data-driven goals to increase inclusion and diversity among our staff, leaders, owners and board of directors. We will cultivate a welcoming and rewarding environment where everyone can achieve their full potential throughout their career journey here.
Caring about our employees is part of our culture or respect. We want a healthy and lifestyle-friendly workplace because we care about our people, but also we want to attract and retain the best talent and reduce healthcare costs.
Our employees have unique capabilities that can add value to their communities, and they want to share their skills with others in need. Community service allows us to challenge people to grow and build relationships in the communities where we live and work.
Our firm encourages professional development at all levels. We are committed to creating a pipeline of world-class and divers leaders. Our growth opportunities increase employee retention and lead to better work outcomes, innovation and leadership in the industry.
