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. 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.
 

1. SAFETY
   The safety of our employees and the traveling public is everyone’s responsibility. Plan safety into every aspect of our work and do not deviate from that plan. Strive for zero incidents.
2. INTEGRITY
   Our business conduct will include the highest level of honesty, ethics, and moral correctness. We will not compromise employees, customers, or our Company.
3. RESPECT
   Respect is the basic rule of behavior that guides every employee in all of his or her actions: respect for oneself and respect for other employees, customers, third parties, the trade unions, society-at-large, the Colas Group’s principles, laws, and regulations, the environment, fairness and ethics in the broadest sense.
4. TEAMWORK
   Our culture of teamwork allows us to work together within the Company, and with our customers to deliver better solutions and collectively accomplish our goals.
5. ENTREPRENEURSHIP
   Each employee should show initiative and be motivated by a desire to win, to commit, and to succeed.
6. TRANSPARENCY
   Our actions must match our works. Each day we must strive to earn our reputation rather than simply manage it. To that end, we must operate in a manner in which our integrity and values cannot be questioned that is, we must be authentic.
7. LEADERSHIP
   Each day, every employee is expected to give the best of themselves, to strive constantly for quality and to demonstrate the highest level of professionalism and to lead by example.
8. ACCOUNTABILITY
   Each individual is fully accountable for his or her decisions and actions.
9. TRUST
   Relations within the Colas Group are based on trust, which is the cornerstone of autonomy, frankness and authenticity. It is for each person to establish and develop his or her trustworthiness and for each person to extend trust to others.
