Governance
Laing O’Rourke is committed to achieving corporate governance standards that meet the highest possible levels of integrity and compliance for a privately owned enterprise.
With this commitment in mind, we have adopted a Group Governance Framework based upon the Wates Corporate Governance Principles for Large Private Companies. A review of how these Principles are applied is set out in the Corporate Governance Statement contained in our Annual Report and Accounts for the year ended 31 March 2025.
Good corporate governance is integral to our objective to sustain an organisational culture based on the Group’s purpose of pushing the boundaries of what's possible in service of humanity through our values of care, integrity and courage. We place strong emphasis on upholding the highest standards of business conduct, ethics and integrity among the Group’s employees, supply chain and other business partners. This approach is encompassed in our Global Code of Conduct.
