What Sets Graham Construction Apart
Graham Construction earned this distinction through several standout initiatives designed to enrich the employee experience:
- Community Engagement: The company invested over $1.4 million in community contributions and charitable donations last year. Employees are encouraged to participate in volunteer activities with paid time off and supported through matching donation programs.
- Career Growth and Development: Graham provides robust training opportunities through its in-house Builders Framework program, led by industry professionals. Additionally, its graduate program helps develop emerging talent within the organization.
- Employee Ownership and Financial Well-being: As a 100% employee-owned company, Graham fosters an ownership mindset through its share purchase plan, open to all employees. The company also strengthens employees’ long-term financial security with a defined contribution pension plan.
Carolynne Laughy, Graham’s senior vice president, people, agrees that the employee-ownership structure aligns the staff with the company, financially and emotionally. “That Graham pride definitely rings loudly, and a lot of people have been able to be invested in the company for 20-plus years.”
