How we work

Welcome to the Forestry Commission England How We Work pages.  Here we aim to tell you about the different ways we work ranging from our study of the forest estate to the work we do with partners.

The Forestry Commission is built on the values of:

Teamwork

We work as teams with colleagues and others to ensure that trees, woods and forests meet the needs of people in each part of England.

Professionalism

We enjoy and take pride in our work, achieving high standards of quality, efficiency and sustainability.

Respect

We treat one another with consideration and trust, recognising each person's contribution irrespective of race, disability, gender, age, sexual orientation, religion and belief.

Communication

We are open, honest and straightforward with colleagues and others, as willing to listen as to tell.

Learning

We are always learning, from outside the Commission as well as from within.

Creativity

We are not afraid to try new ways of doing things.
