EMPOWERING OUR PEOPLE
We’re a people-first company, committed to ethical, safe and inclusive work. Our culture of safety shapes everything we do—and we ensure that every team member has the tools, training, career growth opportunities and open communication they need to be successful on the job.
Protecting the Environment
Protecting the environment is core to what we do here at IEA. Not only do we actively protect the environment through the construction of renewable energy infrastructure, but we also strive to maximize our sustainability as a company by implementing green practices both in our offices and in the field.
Acting with Integrity
Through the immense growth that we’ve seen and the reach that we’ve acquired nationally, our reputation as a “family company” remains. To us, “family” doesn’t describe our size or capabilities, it merely reflects how we choose to conduct business and how we treat our employees. Whether it’s the decisions we make in the office or how we execute on a project, we’re proud to be a company that is firmly centered around our core value of integrity.
Impacting our community
Whether we’re building the infrastructure that will power local homes and businesses, volunteering our time or giving back financially, we are always focused on supporting our community. Our goal isn’t only to be the largest and most reputable construction company in North America, it’s to build long-term relationships with all of the communities where we work.
