Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

W.T. Rich believes diversity – for our teams, our projects and our office – expands our perspectives and strengthens who we are. W.T. Rich strives to do more than talk about making workspaces, jobsites and project teams more diverse and inclusive. Our in-house Manager of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion, Paula Guity, takes a proactive approach in establishing relationships with Minority Business Enterprises (MBE), Women’s Business Enterprises (WBE), Small Business Enterprises (SBE), Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (DBE) and other under-represented businesses. W.T. Rich is consistently working to educate, promote, track and follow-up on subcontractor and workforce participation initiatives. In addition to supporting diversity at the business ownership level, we rigorously promote and support workforce diversity goals.

We are committed to meeting the required MBE/WBE goals on every project. In addition, W.T. Rich is consistently working to educate, promote, track and follow-up on subcontractor and workforce participation initiatives. Our firm is committed to making all construction sites welcoming for workers of all races and genders. W.T. Rich utilizes industry-leading LCPtracker, a cloud-based workforce compliance management software, to carefully review workforce diversity results and ensure we meet minority/women diversity goals. The aggregate of these efforts makes us better builders, more collaborative partners, and contributes to a more equitable industry.
