Employee Management And Development
At SGH, we put people first by appreciating our differences and supporting one another’s success. We lift each other up and strive to create a sense of belonging and collaboration because we know that we are more powerful together. We believe the best workplaces make employees feel inspired, engaged, valued and included.
We invest in our employees’ professional development and connect them with opportunities for advancement within and beyond their current roles. By fostering open and consistent internal communication, we aim to ensure that managers and team members understand one another’s priorities and appreciate each other’s contributions.
Diversity And Inclusion
At SGH, we recognize the importance of having a diverse and engaged workforce, and are proud that our colleagues represent a variety of backgrounds, perspectives and talents. This diversity ensures that different perspectives inform our work as we create products and solutions that meet market needs and advance innovation.
We’re committed to providing our employees with an inclusive working environment and our employee handbook sets out equitable, people-oriented principles for recruitment, promotion, performance evaluation, compensation, and training of all employees.
We partner with organizations to increase the hiring of diverse candidates. We collaborate with Circa and its partner DiversityJobs to promote open SGH positions on hiring websites that target Black and Latinx candidates as well as individuals in the LGBTQIA+ community.
