Our ethics and values guide all that we do at HII. In our actions and practices, we demonstrate respect for all people, with integrity and safety as top priorities. We invite and expect engagement from all, in every role, as a way to serve our common mission with excellence and responsibility – and maximize our performance to fulfill our individual and collective potential.
Genuine engagement – where we are learning, striving, and growing – is the foundation of our success. Together, we’re building a culture based on open communication, mutual respect, and active collaboration. We are committed to creating trust by what we do, not just what we say – because when our people thrive, we thrive and can best serve our mission.

Service is at the heart of our values, culture, mission, and work. We work together to build a culture that lives up to our inspiring mission by how we work, learn, improve, give back, and deliver for our customers.
“Culture & Engagement” describes the initiatives that link our employees with each other and with the communities we serve, spanning formal programming, informal learning, company-supported projects, and employee-run initiatives to capture the positive impact we make in our teams, in our communities, and in service of our mission.
