ENVIRONMENT

Sustainability is an integral part of Forrester’s business plan and an area in which it strives for continual innovation. A leader in sustainable construction, Forrester was among the first general contractors in the DC Metropolitan area to build LEED Certified buildings. With a value-added approach to environmentally sensitive construction that is adaptable to a wide variety of project types, Forrester’s portfolio includes seven LEED Platinum facilities, the first LEED restaurant in Washington, DC, and one of the first and only LEED Platinum facilities in Maryland. Our team includes many LEED Accredited Professionals and Green Associates who proactively work with clients to exceed their sustainability goals, provide innovative and cost effective green solutions and broaden the demand for environmentally responsible construction in the marketplace. We also offer ongoing environmental training that that goes beyond simply complying with regulations.

As a company, Forrester also believes in environmentally responsible business practices taking a holistic approach that includes using recycled and sustainable products and offering flexible work options for many Team Members.

LAWFUL & ETHICAL BUSINESS PRACTICES

In 1989, Forrester was founded on the belief that fair and honest business practices are the only path to long-term success. Forrester’s corporate value statement, “through teamwork, we do the right thing to make it happen!” is at the core of every decision that the company and its Team Members make. Every individual is obligated to conduct business lawfully and ethically.

To ensure that we live up to our principles, Forrester maintains:

• An open culture of communication where Team Members are empowered to report concerns.
• A focus on treating stakeholders fairly and with respect.
• Dedicated corporate compliance and ethics officers.
• A detailed code of professional conduct enhanced by a comprehensive system of processes, policies, training and communication.
