Social
A commitment to diversity, inclusion, and respect.
We create, nurture, and sustain an inclusive and diverse environment that attracts and retains the highest caliber employees, leveraging their skills and expertise to serve our customers. We are dedicated to attracting and developing individuals of all backgrounds, and making CSW a place where everyone can contribute and grow. We believe that diversity not only inspires our internal team, but also drives customer engagement and service.
Our core value of Respect requires that we treat each and every person with dignity, because we believe in the intrinsic value of each individual. This means that we should operate in an environment where everyone has an equal opportunity in all hiring, promotion, and compensation matters. In addition, we believe that embracing diversity will make CSW a stronger and more successful business because we can benefit from varying opinions, perspectives, and life experiences. Managers and leaders are expected to reinforce our values through their actions, thereby serving as role models in creating a work environment that is welcoming and safe while providing an equal opportunity for all to succeed as a member of our team. All of these objectives are reflected in our Code of Business Conduct.

CSW also fosters a sense of community throughout our companies. Each location coordinates efforts to give back to the places they're located. Team members give their time to help others in many different ways, including feeding the homeless, organizing toy drives, supporting scholarship programs, and more.
Here are shining examples of our operating companies in action:
RectorSeal organizes and participates in several community initiatives. The Back-to-School backpack drive is supported by employees who donate backpacks and school supplies for in-need employees’ families. Employees also support DePelchin Children’s Center with donations of school supplies and holiday gifts. In 2020, RectorSeal employees across all locations donated an estimated 916 pounds of food to the Houston Food Bank Food Drive 2020. RectorSeal also supported the Houston area by donating money and PTO during Hurricane Harvey and other recent storms. Employees help each other as well. They donated PTO to a fellow employee who had to stay home for several months after her daughter was injured in a car accident. She never missed a paycheck.
Born and based in Boise, Idaho, Smoke Guard has deep roots in the community.
