Living Our Values

We continually strive for excellence in both our business and our community by upholding eight core values:

TAKING CARE OF OUR PEOPLE

The key to our success is creating an environment where all associates feel that they are respected, their contributions valued, and they have equal access to growth and development opportunities. By surrounding our associates in this environment, their personal and professional growth are inevitable!

EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE

Along with our quality products, service, price and selection, we must go the extra mile to give customers knowledgeable advice about merchandise and to help them use those products to their maximum benefit.

RESPECT FOR ALL PEOPLE

In order to remain successful, our associates must work in an environment of mutual respect, free of discrimination and harassment. Everyone has value, regardless of gender, ethnic or education background.

BUILDING STRONG RELATIONSHIPS

Strong relationships are built on trust, honesty and integrity. We should listen and respond to the needs of customers, associates, communities and vendors, treating them as partners.

DOING THE RIGHT THING

We exercise good judgement by "doing the right thing" instead of just "doing things right." We strive to understand the impact of our decisions, and we accept responsibility for our actions.

GIVING BACK TO THE COMMUNITY

An important part of the fabric of The Home Depot is giving part of our time, talent, energy and treasure to needs in our community and society.

ENTREPRENEURIAL SPIRIT

Home Depot associates are encouraged to initiate creative and innovative ways of serving our customers and improving the business, as well as to adopt good ideas from others.

CREATING SHAREHOLDER VALUE

The investors who provide the capital necessary to allow our company to exist need and expect a return on their investment.

The “orange-blooded” culture of The Home Depot encourages inclusion, passion, and respect not only within the company but extending to all parts of our lives. As a responsible corporate citizen, The Home Depot makes financial and service contributions to society through community involvement with four major focuses:

  1. Affordable/transitional Housing
  2. The Environment
  3. Community Play Spaces
  4. Disaster Response
