Corporate Social Responsibility

Powered by Purpose

GES operates with purpose that extends beyond financial success. We strive to make a positive impact on society and the communities we work in. From an environmental standpoint, our full-service offering is focused on assisting our customers with reducing their carbon footprints, complying with environmental standards, and restoring impaired properties back to beneficial use. Our commitment to Social Responsibility runs deep.

GES’ socially responsible efforts and practices include:

  • Philanthropy – GES donates money to worthy causes including the Tunnels to Towers foundation, local animal shelters, and food pantries in the communities we work in and more.
  • Ethical work practices – GES not only promotes ethical work practices; we have a formal policy and formal training program to educate our staff what is expected of them.
  • Promoting Volunteerism at community events – GES supports employees who volunteer their time and talents in the communities we live and work.

Our actions are guided by our core values and an uncompromised commitment to safety, quality, and doing what’s right for our employees, our customers, and the environment. Over four decades, we have invested in our staff and causes that align with our core values and social responsibility mission.
