Highlighting Our Core Values
At Hensel Phelps, we believe that our core values: Ownership, Integrity, Builder, Diversity and Community, are the foundation of our success. These values guide us in creating a workplace where everyone feels valued, supported and empowered to thrive.
Building Together highlights these principles, encouraging meaningful conversations and connections that strengthen our culture. While we continue to grow and evolve, we celebrate our progress and remain committed to building a stronger future for everyone.

Building Together Forums
Building Together forums are instrumental in bringing our core values to life across the company, cultivating a workplace rooted in belonging and community.
Each forum fosters belonging and open dialogue through initiatives and events that are open to all. Through these forums, Hensel Phelps ensures every employee feels connected, supported and empowered to grow in their career.

“Building Together is our way to get to know and understand one another, and to develop deeper relationships with our coworkers and friends alike. There is so much for everyone to learn, and we’re only going to come out as a stronger, more cohesive organization.“
– Brad Lewis, Director of Supplier Diversity
Ownership
Ownership is not just about responsibility; it is about pride, accountability and a commitment to deliver EXCELLENCE in all we do. As an employee-owned company, we recognize that each of us plays a critical role in our success. Ownership means making decisions that drive positive change, influencing leadership and fostering continuous improvement on and off the jobsite.
Integrity
Integrity means doing the right thing, even when no one is watching. We are committed to honesty, transparency and building trust in everything we do. That includes providing a safe, respectful and hazard-free work environment where our people can thrive. With integrity at the core, we deliver landmark projects and foster lasting partnerships built on confidence and accountability.
Builder
We are builders. With a strong emphasis on safety and self-performance, we take pride in our hands-on expertise and craftsmanship. But our commitment goes beyond the jobsite. We build strong teams, invest in the growth of our people and leave a legacy of excellence in every project we complete.


Diversity
We believe that the strength of our teams lies in the experiences, skills and perspectives each individual brings. Whether in the office or on the jobsite, the range of backgrounds among our people, the wide network of our trusted trade partners and the variety in our project portfolio fosters innovation, adaptability and smarter solutions. By cultivating a culture that respects and values differences, we build more dynamic teams prepared to take on any challenge.

Community
We care for our employees, colleagues and neighbors like a family. Supporting the communities where we live and work is a responsibility we take to heart. Whether through volunteering, partnerships or charitable efforts, we dedicate time and resources to make a meaningful impact beyond the jobsite.
