Committed to closing the trade skills gap through upskilling programs, we have invested nearly $20 million since 2023 in our effort to grow the trades. We are doubling down on our investment by increasing our commitment to $60 million by 2030 in support for the tradespeople and communities we serve, while unlocking future growth for our business.
Through our Grow the Trades program, we strive to strengthen our business by empowering people beyond our walls. To address the demand for tradespeople, we’ve committed $60 million by 2030 to upskilling and reskilling tradespeople. By investing in these programs, we’re working to close the trades skills gap with the aim of positively impacting the communities and markets we serve.
Internally, we strive to cultivate a safe and inclusive workplace where all employees thrive, operate at their full potential and contribute to delivering extraordinary business outcomes. Attracting, retaining and engaging top talent is central to realizing our global strategic vision of being an employer of choice and further aligning our people pillar initiatives with our overall business strategy.
