Compliance & Ethics
At STO Building Group (STOBG), we’re guided by the principle Clients first. Integrity always. We provide best in class service to our clients while upholding the highest ethical standards, recognizing that how we build is just as important as what we build. We strive to provide our employees with the tools they need to perform their jobs with integrity and in accordance with our legal obligations, to work with likeminded clients and partners that share our values, and to preserve our good standing in the marketplace and the communities in which we build.
Our industry-leading compliance and ethics program helps ensure that we do the right thing, for every client, on every jobsite, every day, from top-level executive strategy to day-to-day operations. The program is built around the six integrated pillars described below, but at the heart of our program is maintaining a culture of integrity—where the right kind of behavior is incentivized, where employees feel empowered to voice their concerns, and where there is alignment between what we say as an organization and what we do.
