Holt Celebrates Construction Inclusion Week & Partners with the American Heart Association Hard Hats with Heart Initiative

This year Holt Construction’s Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Taskforce mobilized the company nation wide to honor Construction Inclusion Week.

Construction Inclusion Week amplifies awareness while celebrating diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) throughout the industry to spearhead change. The week provides educational and business resources for the construction industry including office teams, craft and jobsite crews, and industry affiliates. Each day, Holt’s DEI taskforce led a virtual lunch and learn where they discussed the days topics and engaged in open dialogue about how they as individuals can do better, and how Holt can continue to foster a culture that is diverse, equitable and inclusive.

Holt’s Newark, New Jersey field superintendents, led by Vincent Cartiglia, took the week in stride, and incorporated each day’s topics as part of their toolbox talks. Toolbox talks are the perfect place to reinforce changes to any policies or procedures that affect the job at hand and to set the tone of the project.
