According to the results:

  • 93 percent of employees said that Envu provides a physically safe workplace and fair treatment for everyone, regardless of race, sexual orientation, gender or age.
  • 91 percent said they felt welcomed when they joined the company.
  • 80 percent said Envu is a great place to work.

“Our teams across the U.S., together with our customers, play a vital role in protecting public health, preserving natural spaces and advancing sustainable practices in the industries we serve,” said Schneid. “This recognition reinforces the pride our people feel in that mission — and the passion they bring to work every day to help solve real-world challenges.”
