Founder John H. McConnell was a veteran of the U.S. Navy and served in WWII. He built the company on a Philosophy that shares many of the same values as our military: a strong work ethic, integrity and discipline. Worthington has a people-first culture that leads with safety and continuous improvement and empowers team members to innovate, thrive and grow. We focus specifically on veterans as part of our recruiting strategy. Some of the ways Worthington recognizes our service members are with celebrations, an employee resource group, challenge coins, volunteering and charitable giving efforts.
