Creating a culture of inclusion

Business Resource Groups provide strategic support to the enterprise. Integrated into our global D&I strategy, these groups help our organization better understand the needs of our customer base and our employees, foster innovation through a diverse workforce, and create an inclusive culture.  They also provide individuals the opportunity to build professional relationships, expand personal networks, develop leadership skills, and feel part of a community with  a sense of belonging.

B-Proud

The purpose of B-PROUD is to support an inclusive environment; where all employees are able to reach their full potential and feel comfortable as individuals, do not exert useful energy hiding who they are, and instead focus this energy into their work. 

B-PROUD aims to encourage straight employees in taking equal responsibility for making our working environment explicitly inclusive of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT+) employees.

Aligning with Bechtel’s commitment to D&I, and in honor of the veterans among us, the Bechtel Forum for Service Veterans, Reservists and the Military (BSERV) will help us:

  • Leverage the input and experience of our veterans & reservists
  • Understand & appreciate the uniqueness of their experiences; bridging the gaps to civilian colleagues
  • Welcome veterans & reservists into Bechtel’s culture, promoting the company as veteran-friendly
