Corporate Responsibility
As an engineering firm, we have a great responsibility – and opportunity – to operate sustainably and to deliver
climate-ready solutions that have a significant positive impact on our communities and the planet.
Sustainability & ESG
Our commitment to environmental and social sustainability is not new. In keeping with our continuous improvement philosophy, we have adopted a robust ESG strategy that focuses on our people, clients and communities and formalizes our climate commitments and the ways we measure performance. Our strategy advances the high standard for corporate governance set by our founders, and measures progress using industry-leading third-party reporting frameworks, including SBTi, GRI, FIDIC’s Climate Charter and the United Nations Sustainable Development Guidelines.
Indigenous Relations & Reconciliation
Morrison Hershfield acknowledges the urgent need to respect and promote the inherent rights of indigenous peoples. Over the years, we have established productive working relationships with Indigenous communities, clients and partners across Canada. Sincere, active engagement results in more informed decision making and more sustainable solutions that help protect the unique culture of each community while improving quality of life and supporting economic prosperity.
Celebrating Our Differences
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) is built into Morrison Hershfield’s culture. Understanding and celebrating our differences makes us stronger. Our policies and programs support a diverse, inclusive and accepting environment that helps us deliver an exceptional experience for employees, clients, partners and our communities.
A Safe Space
We care about the physical, mental and social well-being of our people. Our robust safety policies, safe job procedures and safe job practices provide a solid foundation for the firm’s Occupational Health and Safety Management System and help us maintain a safe and welcoming workplace. In our most recent employee survey, occupational health and safety received a 90% approval rating.
