The Fortrea Culture Brings the Change Our Industry Needs

The clinical research industry needs innovation around some of our basic challenges - it needs a cultural shift to achieve this.

Clinical trial sponsors expect more flexible and agile solutions from partners who feel truly accountable for product and project success.

Investigator sites want solutions that improve their productivity, reduce complexity and make it easier for them to conduct studies.

Fortrea is bringing a cultural shift to the clinical research industry. Our purpose-driven culture leverages know-how and nimbleness to deliver what's needed today, unencumbered by legacy thinking.

How We Care and Deliver

Culture is how we deliver. It is how we think, act and create experiences to drive results. It encompasses the shared values, beliefs, behaviors and attitudes that shape our work environment and connects our diverse people across geographies. We strive to ensure that all Fortreans feel included and are part of advancing this mission.

The Fortrea Four

Being the CRO of choice requires a commitment to quality and a strong strategic foundation. When Fortrea evolved from our heritage as Covance and Labcorp, we seized the opportunity to build a unique culture. With engagement from employees across Fortrea and by collecting best practices from outside the organization, we created a global network of culture champions and our cultural pillars, the Fortrea Four. These pillars form the basis of our Fortrea culture and describe how we work together to achieve our mission.

Forward Together

I partner with my customers to understand their needs and achieve results together.

Own It

I hold myself accountable and work across perceived boundaries to find solutions and deliver.

Uphold Integrity

I do the right things in the right way, with the safety of patients and research volunteers always coming first.

Respect People

I am inclusive, seek feedback and create positive experiences for all.

The Fortrea Culture in Action

Fortrea's pillars and culture apply to all employees across roles and geography. Our culture makes us better-for our customers, trial participants and various partners around the world. It's our joint responsibility to uphold these pillars in all that we do, every day.

Here’s how that makes a difference:

  • Ensures all team members are working toward common goals
  • Fosters motivation by connecting individual efforts to Fortrea’s vision
  • Increases job satisfaction through greater investment in work
  • Provides a framework for adaptability and resilience, allowing us to better respond to challenges and opportunities
  • Strengthens our collaboration with customers, sites and third-party partners

Working globally to further strengthen our culture, Fortrea has eight Employee Resource Groups (ERGs), each focused on common interests of their members, with almost 4,000 Fortrea employees participating.
