Commitment to Ethical Standards

We are committed to uncompromising ethical standards and full compliance with laws and regulations. We expect our employees to conduct themselves in a way that upholds our organization’s commitment to honesty, impartiality, and reputation. We support regular employee training and easy access to resources, as well as ways to report concerns.

Health and Safety

We recognize that prioritizing a safety-first mindset is essential to the success of our clients, company, and community. Our vision is simple: Every employee at Dewberry should return home at the end of the day, to their family and loved ones, safe and unharmed.

Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, and Accessibility

We believe that innovation thrives when diverse perspectives are brought to every solution. Led by our board of directors and executive leadership, we set high standards for performance, celebrating and maintaining an inclusive environment that encourages diversity of thought. Our actions include employee resource groups, pay equity analysis, unconscious bias training, and robust hiring and retention practices; and measuring our efforts against objectives for women and minority participation.

Supplier Diversity Program

We are committed to developing valuable relationships with underrepresented population and small, HubZone, and 8(a) businesses; providing maximum practicable opportunities for suppliers. Purchasing goods and services from these businesses continuously improves our supply chain, and the economic success of our suppliers, clients, and communities; underpinning our corporate social responsibility and making our company stronger.
