Celebrating Employee Ownership Month
Every October, McCarthy joins employee-owned companies across the country in celebrating Employee Ownership Month.
Each October, McCarthy joins employee-owned companies across the country in celebrating Employee Ownership Month — a time to recognize the people who make ownership meaningful every day. In 2026, our theme is “We Own Our Legacy,” a reminder that the decisions we make today help shape the future for the partners who come after us.
McCarthy’s employee ownership journey began when the company established its Employee Stock Ownership Plan in 1996 and became 100 percent employee-owned in 2002. Today, the ESOP represents more than a financial benefit. It is a shared investment in our future and a reflection of how we work together.
Ownership comes to life in the choices we make every day: taking responsibility for our work, collaborating with intention, developing one another, communicating directly and serving our clients, trade partners and communities well. It is visible when teams solve problems together, look for a better way and consider how their actions contribute to the strength of the enterprise.
Being an employee-owner means developing ourselves and others, being open, communicating directly, feeling the weight of our decisions, trusting one another and being trustworthy, and being present.
