At Graham Holdings, corporate responsibility reflects how we operate across every business and community we serve. Our companies are guided by shared values of integrity, transparency, and respect — informing how we lead, how we invest, and how we measure success.
Graham Holdings maintains a long-standing commitment to our customers, employees, shareholders, and the communities we serve. As a decentralized company, our businesses operate independently, guided by shared values that emphasize integrity, quality, transparency, dignity, value, and respect.
These values inform how we lead, how we invest, and how we measure success. We believe strong results are built through principled leadership and empowered teams, and we work to create an environment where talented people can build meaningful, long-term careers. Alongside corporate philanthropy, our businesses actively support their local communities through partnerships, civic engagement, and volunteer efforts.
We seek to be a responsible corporate citizen in every community where our businesses operate. Our commitment is reflected in long-term local investment, both through corporate giving and through the charitable, civic, and volunteer initiatives led by our operating companies.
While our portfolio spans multiple industries and geographies, our teams share a strong connection to their local communities. We believe that businesses perform best when they are engaged, trusted, and invested in the places where their people live and work.

Acting with integrity is fundamental to who we are and essential to our long-term success. We are committed to the highest standards of business ethics and to complying with all applicable laws in every market in which we operate.
These expectations are reinforced through our policies, leadership, and day-to-day actions. Employees across the United States and around the world are expected to understand and consistently apply our shared standards of ethical conduct. Our Code of Business Conduct applies to all employees and extends to contractors, consultants, agents, and others acting on our behalf. It establishes the principles that guide decision-making, identifies resources for guidance, and complements operating unit policies that may be more specific or stringent.

Our people are at the heart of our long-term success. We are committed to strong governance, ethical leadership, and thoughtful human capital practices that support employees and enable our businesses to perform at their best.
Through comprehensive oversight, a culture grounded in integrity, and continued investment in development and well-being, we aim to attract, retain, and support talented individuals while fostering an inclusive and respectful workplace. Our commitment extends beyond the workplace, as we provide resources and assistance to employees and retirees during times of personal hardship – reflecting our belief that long-term value is built by taking care of people.
