View CareersJustice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion, (JEDI) are the principles we live by that ensure all stakeholders are treated with respect and given opportunities to participate in the company's decision-making processes. In practice, this means Clark Construction Company is committed to create a culture that values diversity and promotes inclusivity.
Justice means addressing and remedying any existing inequalities or injustices that may have resulted from past discrimination or exclusionary practices. Promoting justice at Clark is an ongoing process that requires constant attention and effort. It involves creating policies and practices that are fair and inclusive, and regularly reviewing and updating these policies to ensure that they are effective in promoting equality and combating discrimination. It also involves actively listening to and addressing the concerns of all employees and working to create a culture of respect and inclusion.
Equity involves ensuring that all employees have the resources and support they need to succeed and advance. This may involve providing additional support or accommodations to employees who face additional barriers to have equal opportunities to grow and contribute to our collective success.
Diversity refers to the qualities that make individuals unique, such as race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, age, physical ability, neurodiversity, religious and political beliefs, socioeconomic background, and educational level. In the context of JEDI work, diversity is often understood to refer to the range of ways in which people differ. Our aim is to increase diversity within our company, and to foster an inclusive environment that is welcoming and respectful of all individuals, regardless of their differences.
Inclusion for us at Clark is about creating an environment where all individuals feel valued, supported, and able to fully participate in the company’s success. By actively promoting inclusion, we can create a culture of belonging and engagement for all individuals, regardless of their background or identity, where every individual can be their authentic selves and have a voice at the table.
