At The Patrick Group of Companies, we actively shape a workplace policy that highlights how we are safe, respectful, and high-performing as a team. Whether you’re on a job site, in a shop, or at a desk, we hold every team to the same high standards. Our policy supports operational excellence, employee wellbeing, and long-term growth across all divisions.
Core Principles That Guide Our Teams
Safety First, Always
We lead with safety. Every employee has the authority, and the responsibility, to work safely. We meet all regulatory standards and go further by investing in safety training, field readiness, and daily prevention practices.
Respect and Inclusion
We build inclusive workplaces where every voice matters. Our teams respect one another, communicate openly, and solve problems together. We don’t tolerate harassment or discrimination in any form.
Professional Integrity
We expect professionalism in every role. Employees act with reliability, ownership, and pride. We support this with clear expectations, structured onboarding, and regular feedback from leadership.
Continuous Improvement
We grow by learning. Our teams develop new skills through mentorship, hands-on experience, and upskilling programs. We encourage innovation and leadership at every level.
Clear Communication
We rely on clear communication to stay aligned. Regular updates, shared processes, and open dialogue help our teams move forward together, across divisions and job sites.
Attendance and Conduct
We show up ready. All employees must demonstrate punctuality, accountability, and a strong work ethic. We enforce a zero-tolerance policy for substance use, harassment, and unsafe conduct.
One Policy, Many Workplaces
Because we work across several industries across Northern Ontario—from mechanical contracting and HVAC to fabrication and aluminum boats—we tailor our approach to fit each site. Still, every location follows the same core values: safety, respect, integrity, and continuous improvement.

Core Principles in Our Workplace Policy That Guide Our Teams
Safety First, Always
To begin with, safety is non-negotiable. Every employee has both the authority and the duty to prioritize it. We follow all regulatory requirements—and more importantly, we exceed them. Through regular training, proactive planning, and field-level support, we stay ready and prevent incidents before they happen.
Respect and Inclusion
Equally important is how we treat one another. We believe every voice deserves to be heard. Therefore, we build inclusive environments grounded in mutual respect. We encourage open dialogue, diverse perspectives, and shared problem-solving. Harassment and discrimination are never tolerated—at any level.
Professional Integrity
In addition, we expect every employee to act with professionalism, accountability, and pride. Our leaders set the tone through clear expectations, structured onboarding, and consistent feedback. As a result, our teams stay focused, reliable, and aligned with company goals.
Continuous Improvement
Moreover, we believe in growing together. We actively promote skill development, knowledge sharing, and leadership at all levels. Whether through mentorship, hands-on learning, or formal training, we support employees who want to advance and contribute more.
Clear Communication
Strong teams rely on clarity. That’s why we focus on transparent protocols, regular updates, and direct conversations. By staying aligned, we avoid confusion, reduce rework, and maintain momentum—especially across diverse teams and job sites.
Attendance and Conduct
Finally, professionalism includes showing up with purpose. We expect every team member to be punctual, dependable, and committed. We maintain a zero-tolerance policy for substance use, harassment, or unsafe behavior—without exception.
One Policy, Many Workplaces
Because we operate across multiple industries—from mechanical and HVAC services to custom fabrication and aluminum boat manufacturing—our teams face different challenges. Even so, our policy flexes to meet those realities while staying rooted in the same core values: safety, respect, integrity, communication, and growth.
