Vulcan Materials Company – Social Responsibility | Our Environmental, Social & Governance Commitments to You

SUSTAINING DURABLE GROWTH

Sustainability is embedded throughout our strategy and synonymous with driving durable growth for our shareholders. It is part of our culture, which we call The Vulcan Way: doing the right thing, the right way, at the right time.

We approach sustainability in terms of our commitments to our people and their safety and health, to environmental stewardship, and to our neighbors and the communities in which we operate. This update highlights some of our accomplishments in 2024 in each of these areas.

Congratulations to our Vulcan employees on another great year of solid execution, strong results, and dedication to responsible and sustainable growth.

Sincerely,

J. Thomas Hill
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer

Our Commitments

People

At Vulcan, our team members are our most valuable asset and the reason for our success. When we say the “Vulcan family,” implicit in that description is a promise to every one of our almost 12,000 employees that we are dedicated to fostering a culture of integrity, teamwork, and mutual respect. We are proud to offer career development and training opportunities, a positive company culture, and comprehensive benefits designed to support the needs of our employees and their families. At Vulcan, we invest in the success of our business by first investing in our people.

Health & Safety

The safety and health of our people is our top priority and the foundation of how we do business. Our Safety, Health, and Environmental (SHE) teams include input from every level of our organization — from senior leadership in the Safety, Health, & Environment Management Committee to operations and safety personnel from each site. We are dedicated to continuous improvement of our safety programs through ongoing internal inspections, regulatory audits, and sharing of best practices.

Environmental Stewardship

Environmental stewardship is necessary for Vulcan’s long-term sustainability and growth. Production of construction aggregates requires land, energy, and water. Efficient use of these resources and management of the environmental impacts of our operations are embedded in our business planning. Our intentional approach to environmental stewardship has also produced increased operational efficiency and reduced costs, new opportunities for growth, and effective risk management.

Neighbors & Community

Being a good neighbor and corporate citizen is not just the right thing to do for our business, but it is how we build lasting partnerships in our communities. From collaborating with local community groups and philanthropic organizations to government officials, supply chain partners, and Indigenous groups, we believe in being active and engaged neighbors. The nature of our business is built on sustainable, long-term investments — if we operate in a community, we are committed to being a positive contributor to that community for years to come.

Governance

Our Board of Directors understands the importance of evaluating and determining the optimal leadership structure to provide independent oversight of management. We have established six committees on our Board, and all, other than the Executive Committee, are comprised entirely of independent directors. Additional information about the composition, structure, tenure, and compensation of our Board of Directors and committees can be found in our 2023 Proxy Statement.
