Our goal is to operate our business with the highest level of integrity, responsibility, and accountability.

 

We will be ethical in our business practices.

 

We will communicate honestly and provide leadership to our employees.

 

We will develop long-term and positive relationships within our communities.

 

We are committed to providing a safe working environment, and believe that no work is so important or urgent that it cannot be performed safely.

Core Values

We know our employees are committed to “doing the right thing in the right way.”

We strive daily to make this a part of our culture to ensure this approach takes precedence over short-term profits or simple convenience.

 

The foundation of Colas USA companies’ ongoing success and development lies in earning and maintaining the trust of our customers, employees, shareholders, and other third parties.

Our flexible, decentralized organization gives each of our employees the autonomy to act in accordance within the distinct characteristics of each Colas company location. Given that autonomy, it is essential that we operate in a manner consistent with our values and in compliance with our ethical principles and the law.

 

We have established nine core values to guide our behavior in all aspects of our business activity. These values reflect who we are and what we do. They guide and inspire our work every day.
