Laing

With over 160 years history of working in the built environment and as a significant employer, John Laing has always acknowledged its responsibilities to communities, staff and the environment.

This is even more important in today's world when we have all the advantages of modern transport systems, communications technology and global markets, and yet there are continuing sharp divides between those who are fortunate and those who are not.

The impact of climate change is all too evident and the stresses at the modern workplace continually threaten a healthy and balanced lifestyle. John Laing recognises its corporate responsibilities (CR) and is setting high standards so that the Group can make a positive contribution to sustainability and social welfare.

Over the last eight years John Laing has restructured itself and this has resulted in a significant change to its operations.

The Group is heavily involved in the planning, procurement and operation of public sector infrastructure and transport systems including:

• schools,
• hospitals,
• police stations,
• roads,
• bridges and rail systems.

Our corporate responsibilities are just as important as they ever were and we aim to further develop the culture of social responsibility that has been instilled in the Group over many decades.

Due to the close working relationship with the public sector and in accordance with our CR Principles, it is our policy not to make any political donations.
