Our Beliefs
These beliefs are important to us as a company. We hold three beliefs above everything else.
People are our greatest resource.
The true value of any company is the people who are at the foundation of its success. At UW, we invest in each team member’s health, education and wellbeing by offering benefits such as educational assistance, wellness activities, leadership programs, communication seminars, safety training and much more.
Respect for all parties is imperative.
At UW, every team member is treated with respect. By setting the standard for respect as an expectation and a model behavior in our culture, it is reflected upon each person. This creates a successful environment of caring, kindness, and helpfulness.
Learning is essential to growth.
At Universal Woods, each and every team member participates in communication workshops, teamwork seminars, safety training and more. Continuous learning is the cornerstone of our growth and development. UW offers an educational assistance program that supports growth of knowledge for any team member. We are dedicated to our educational and training programs.
