“Fostering a Sense of Belonging”
Fluor recognizes and understands that our journey into Diversity, Equity and Inclusion is not about a destination; it is about fostering a dynamic and constantly evolving component of our corporate culture.

Vision for the Future
At Fluor, we strive to build and maintain a workplace that is inclusive and respectful, that creates a sense of belonging where each of us comes to work without reservation. We know that Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I) is a critical component of our corporate culture. DE&I is a perpetual journey representing the future of global business.
Fluor’s purpose is to “Build a Better World,” and it applies to our employees and contractors as much as our clients. The rainbow of perspective that people develop through their lived experience, education, culture, and communities of belonging will help inform our path forward as a corporation. These perspectives guide how we view ourselves in the world and how the world perceives our work.
These perspectives are unlocked when we welcome and protect our employees and contractors as they bring their authentic selves to work without fear, feel included and appreciated, and go home at the end of the day knowing their contributions are recognized and appreciated.
This is our vision for the Future.
It is important to recognize that members of the LGBTQ2S+ community have fought for their place in society, with some parts of the world seeing more progress than others. As an organization, we continue to support and embrace the LGBTQ2S+ community, learn about its history, and champion any necessary changes in our own workplace that its members continue to fight for today. As part of our DE&I culture, we want to foster a high-performance corporate culture where we appreciate all members of the Fluor family for who they are, without judgement.
To the members of the LGBTQ2S+ community – we see you, we hear you, and we are here to learn from you.
