EMPLOYEE WELL-BEING




          A Career, Not a Job


          Company Workforce Enjoys Improved Martin Marietta Experience


          Social distancing and remote working continued through portions of 2021 and brought with it certain challenges,
          including how to effectively attract, recruit, hire and develop employees. At Martin Marietta, one of our goals is to make
          sure our people know that if they’re going to invest their time in us, we’re going to do the same for them, and that we
          have shared goals to work together to build a legacy.

          As previously reported in 2020, the Company launched a new Martin Marietta Careers website and applicant tracking
          system. Designed primarily to enhance the experience of job candidates, the site highlights the overall diversity of the
          Martin Marietta workforce and business while offering a better understanding of the Company, its history, Mission, Vision
          and Values, benefits, and opportunities. In 2021, this effort was expanded to a newly designed internal job board to
          improve the candidate experience for current employees seeking other opportunities within Martin Marietta.

                                                                “Take the next step in your rock-solid career.”

                                                                That’s the instruction at the lead of the My Martin Careers
                                                                internal job board, our latest tool to highlight opportunity
                                                                and encourage development among our workforce.

                                                                Powered by Jobvite, the same software adopted to launch
                                                                Martin Marietta’s careers website in 2020, the job board
                                                                serves as a one-stop shop for any employee looking to
                                                                advance their career within the company.

                                                                “One of our primary goals at Martin Marietta is to
                                                                continuously provide our people with opportunities to
                                                                grow,” says Andrea Wun, senior manager of talent
                                                                acquisition and a lead member of the My Martin Careers
                                                                project team. “While that’s incredibly important for our
                                                                employees, it’s also vital for Martin Marietta. If our company
                                                                is going to remain strong, we have to make sure we’re
                                                                challenging and retaining our most talented teammates.”

                                                                Much like the external careers website, the job board
