Culture of Care Program Spotlight: Barriere Features Mentorship Successes

At Barriere, we uphold our Core Values as our Value Propositions —Partnership, Professionalism, and Operational Excellence — guide implementation of our B Guarantee to safely and reliably deliver quality projects under budget and on time, every time. This is the Barriere Way, and the resulting Culture of Care is our legacy as the Barriere family.

Our goal is to attract and develop top talent then hire from within through promotions.

Barriere’s Culture of Care programs are designed to support our 430 employees in pursuing their personal and our collective wellbeing, and the Mentorship Program is one way we attract, develop, and retain top talent.

MENTORSHIP PROGRAM

The Barriere Mentorship Program connects our established top talent’s expertise and experience to the development of New Hires through the promotion of proper work techniques in SAFETY, QUALITY, and PRODUCTION. The Program stands alone and is part of our On-the-Job Training Program.

ALL New Hires are assigned a Mentor and required to complete a working book during the two-month Program that integrates them into Barriere’s Culture of Care. Setting new employees up for success in this way keeps everyone as safe as possible and affords Mentors the opportunity to pass along wisdom while earning extra cash dependent upon mentee engagement level and retention.

2020 TOP MENTORS ANNOUNCED AT 2021 TRAINING WEEK

Top Mentors are selected based on job performance and their mentee’s successful completion of Barriere’s Mentorship Program. Thanks to our 2020/2021 Top Mentors for making Barriere the Louisiana Contractor of Choice for our customers and employees!
