Social responsibility
The sea belongs to everyone
Gorton’s Social Responsibility pillar encompasses the elements of sustainability that are not necessarily environmentally focused, including Diversity, Equity & Inclusion, Workplace Safety, Community Impact & Philanthropy, and Human Rights & Ethical Labor Practices.
This means not only fostering a culture that recognizes, understands, respects, and fully utilizes the contributions of each individual we employ, but facilitating conversations that devote us further to growth, continuously educate, and hold us all accountable to the same goals.
