Community Respect
Communicating with clients, local stakeholders and affected communities to understand concerns, manage disruption and maintain respectful working relationships.
Corporate social responsibility
Responsible work.
Lasting value.
We believe construction should deliver more than a completed structure. It should respect people, protect the environment and strengthen the communities around every project.
Our commitmentsOur approach
Responsibility is part of
how we deliver.
SMI approaches corporate responsibility through the everyday decisions made before, during and after construction. This means considering the safety of workers and the public, engaging respectfully with affected communities, managing environmental impacts and conducting business with integrity.
Our priorities are applied according to each project’s scope, location, client requirements and regulatory obligations. We aim to document our actions clearly and improve our approach as the company and its project portfolio grow.
