Healthcare Realty recognizes the importance of supporting and engaging employees, tenants, hospital system partners, and communities is essential to the long-term success of our Company.

Healthcare Realty established meaningful long- and short-term goals that align with our sustainability priorities. Our progress against these goals can be found in our annual Corporate Responsibility Report.

Our employees are at the heart of Healthcare Realty’s success. They represent the best of our core values to one another, our physician tenants and their patients, plus vendors and business partners. By supporting and investing in our team, we help our employees to thrive professionally and personally.

Our employees create and maintain Healthcare Realty’s strong culture. Using a variety of channels, employees participate in a regular cadence of communication. Employee-led social and wellness committees provide opportunities to influence and participate in activities to keep employees around the country connected.

Healthcare Realty employees work tirelessly to support our tenants and their patients. To recognize this work, the Company uses LinkedIn and internal communication to highlight our Purpose, Vision, and Values in action.

In 2024, Healthcare Realty worked with a third-party to conduct an employee engagement survey to better understand our strengths and identify areas of improvement. In response to survey results, we have begun executing an action plan to address employee feedback.

Healthcare Realty is committed to supporting the career development of our team members. Employee benefits include company-sponsored education opportunities, tuition and professional certification reimbursement, and industry-specific learning. We regularly bring employees together for company conferences and lunchtime learning sessions. In the past three years, 129 employees have been promoted, highlighting our leadership development efforts and aiding talent retention.

Healthcare Realty strives to create work environments that encourage positive health, wellness, and safety for our employees and local communities. We are committed to providing a safe workplace for all employees and making reasonable efforts to eliminate hazards that cause accidents and injuries, including providing hundreds of safety courses.

Healthcare Realty CARES focuses on supporting the mental and physical well-being of our employees. Launched in 2021, the program includes fitness challenges, community service events, employee engagement activities, and wellness support services.

Healthcare Realty is committed to a diverse and inclusive culture. We embrace employee differences in race, color, religion, gender, sexual orientation, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, and other characteristics that make our employees unique. We recognize and appreciate the worth of every individual and support the protection of human rights.

Healthcare Realty emphasizes community involvement, tenant outreach, and outstanding customer service to improve the experiences of our tenants and their patients.

We value regular, direct, and professional communication with our tenants. Our teams use a portfolio-wide tenant communication system to ensure tenants receive timely information and responses to requests. We regularly host tenant appreciation events for our building tenants, including coffee carts, free lunches, afternoon snacks, lunchtime cornhole games, and raffles.

Giving back to our local communities where our physician tenants provide care is important to Healthcare Realty. We support and encourage employee involvement with charitable organizations, providing paid volunteer hours and a matching gift program. Over the past three years, we have donated to 16 hospital systems, 24 non-profit and community organizations, and 151 employee-directed charities.
