People
At LP, people come first. We work to create an engaging and inclusive culture at LP that protects the health and well-being of our team members and creates opportunities for individuals to learn and grow while taking care of themselves and their families.
Culture, Engagement and Well-Being
Driven by our eight leadership behaviors, our high-performing culture encourages team members to “Think and Act Like Owners™.” We empower our team members to innovate, drive results and take pride in their work.
Our goal is to create an inclusive and collaborative work environment that allows team members to learn, grow and develop while taking care of themselves and their families. Our Team Member Journey guides our team member experience over five areas: Recruit and Hire, Onboard, Engage, Develop and Progress.
As a part of this Team Member Journey, we conduct annual team member surveys. These surveys allow us to get feedback from our team members and continue to improve the team member experience.
In recognition of our values-driven culture and our commitment to team members, we were named by Newsweek as one of America’s Greatest Workplaces in 2023 and were featured on The Tennessean’s 2023 list of Top Workplaces.
We offer a number of opportunities for our employees at all levels, whether senior leader or individual contributor, to learn and grow at LP. We also provide health and wellness benefits to help our employees take care of themselves and their families.
Our Sustainability Report details the programs we have in place to care for our employees and create an engaging and rewarding work environment.
Inclusion and Belonging
At LP, we’re building what matters. We’re building careers, building homes, and building on our core value to Do the Right Thing Always™.
We’re also building on our commitment to fostering an inclusive culture that enhances our ability to attract and retain diverse talent at every level. We value the richness that comes from diverse backgrounds, experiences, perspectives, and talents. This commitment not only strengthens our competitiveness but also aligns with our values, principles, and policies.
Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, along with our Human Rights Policy, holds us accountable for maintaining a workplace free from abuse, discrimination, and harassment. These standards require us to uphold a culture of mutual respect, ensuring the dignity of every LP team member.
Our focus on inclusion and belonging centers on four key areas:
Attracting diverse candidates and building inclusive leadership teams that reflect the communities where we operate.
Ensuring representation of women and people of color on LP’s Board of Directors.
Ensuring pay equity based on comparable work, experience, and performance.
Cultivating a culture where everyone feels valued, respected, and a true sense of belonging.
At LP, we’re Building a Better World™ for our team members, stakeholders, and communities. By creating an environment where every individual is empowered to succeed, we unlock the full potential of our people—and when our people thrive, so does our company.
Team Member Health and Safety
We’re committed to creating a healthy, safe workplace for all team members.
Our safety programs aim to prevent incidents before they occur. Applicable to all team members and contractors, our Environmental, Health and Safety (EHS) Protocol Standard defines our expectations for creating a safe work environment. Additionally, our recently introduced Serious Injury and Fatality (SIF) Prevention program uses predictive tools to further identify and target potential safety risks.
Every LP team member or contractor receives baseline safety training when they join the company, plus supplemental training based on their job requirements. In addition to this baseline training, each facility provides extra training specific to safety considerations for time of year, needs or high-risk activities.
Since 2010, we’ve won more than 90 safety awards recognizing us for our performance and commitment to safety.
