Serving Each Other

Respectful and Inclusive Work Environment

The way we work matters. That means creating an inclusive and respectful workplace. We believe all associates should be treated fairly and with dignity.

Discrimination or harassment based on any legally protected status is not allowed. This includes:

  • Race or color
  • Religion
  • Sex, gender or gender identity
  • Age
  • National origin or ancestry
  • Disability or medical condition
  • Sexual orientation
  • Marital, military or veteran status
  • Genetic information

EVERY ASSOCIATE PLAYS A ROLE IN MAINTAINING A RESPECTFUL WORKPLACE.

At Lowe's, we:

  • Treat others with respect
  • Help create an inclusive environment
  • Speak up if you see or experience inappropriate behavior

If you experience or witness harassment or discrimination, report it immediately to any member of your leadership, your HR Business Partner or EthicsPoint at lowes.ethicspoint.com.

LEAD BY EXAMPLE

While the Code applies to all associates, leaders at all levels play a critical role in bringing our Code of Conduct to life. By setting clear expectations, modeling the right behaviors and holding their teams accountable, leaders help ensure we operate with integrity every day. This is an opportunity to build strong, high-performing teams grounded in our Core Behaviors—focusing on customers, delivering results, taking action, showing courage and continuing to learn — which in turn strengthens our company as a whole

Health and Safety

The health and safety of associates, customers, vendors and communities is a top priority at Lowe’s. Safety is everyone’s responsibility.

  • Follow all health and safety policies and procedures
  • Report to work free from the influence of drugs or alcohol
  • Help maintain a workplace free from violence or threats
  • Use equipment safely and only with proper training and protective equipment
  • Take action to correct unsafe conditions

What If:

Q: My coworker often dresses inappropriately for our in-store work. Sometimes their t-shirts have explicit graphics or sayings that are visible through our vests. I think it reflects poorly on Lowe’s. What should I do to stop this?
Q: I noticed that equipment at my location needs maintenance. I am concerned that the lack of maintenance can lead to an accident. I reported this to my supervisor, and they said not to worry about it at this time because it will be an unnecessary cost for the quarter. What else should I do?
