We put people first, building a culture that ignites creativity and supports growth, in a workplace that makes employees feel inspired, engaged, valued and included. Through our commitment to investing in our people, we bring them new opportunities to learn and grow within and beyond their roles at SGH.

Social

Throughout each of our business lines, we help enrich the quality of people’s lives in the local communities where we operate. We do this through employee donation matching, direct corporate giving, and employee volunteer activities.

Governance
