LAMAR ADVERTISING CONEW

Our People. We employed approximately 3,550 people as of December 31, 2023. Approximately 300 employees were engaged in overall management and general administration at our corporate headquarters in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and the remainder, including approximately 985 local account executives, were employed in our operating offices.

Fifteen of our local offices employ billposters and construction personnel who are covered by collective bargaining agreements. We believe that our relationship with our employees, including our approximately 100 unionized employees, is favorable, and we have never experienced a strike or work stoppage.

As Lamar’s business continues to grow, so does the Company’s strong commitment to recruiting a work force with diverse talents, as well as to developing and retaining the successful members of our sales and management teams. Our 985 local account executives and approximately 170 local management employees have been with the Company for an average of 12 years. We regularly provide on-site training and remote sales training videos to enhance the skills of our sales and management team members.

We employ approximately 1,100 operations employees, including operations management. These employees are responsible for installing advertising copy, maintaining our billboard inventory and ensuring our billboards, logos and transit displays are in safe operating condition. We empower these employees to have a safety-first mentality, which includes the authority to stop an installation or other work job for any safety concern. We also provide training and certification to our operations employees, including training for crane operations and climbing safety. Our management regularly conducts scheduled safety meetings and unscheduled job observations to ensure that we maintain a safety mindset every day.

Diversity and inclusion. We recognize that our organization grows stronger as we are able to draw on the skills of employees with a variety of backgrounds and life experiences, particularly as the audiences that we serve become more diverse. We want to embrace Lamar employees’ unique differences of race, gender and gender identity, religion, sexual orientation, ethnicity, nationality, socioeconomic status, language, ability, age, religious commitment, veteran status, or political perspective. As such, we are committed to cultivating a culture where all employees see the opportunity to show up to work as their most authentic selves.

As of December 31, 2023, approximately 36% of our work force was female, 18% of our employees and 33% of our named executive offices identified themselves as minorities, while 33% of our Board of Directors was female and one of our nine directors was a member of a minority group.

We have established several initiatives aimed at further diversifying our work force, including establishing an alliance with a hiring network that helps bring us a more diverse pool of candidates and creating an internal women’s leadership network that provides our female leaders with tools and a supportive community to help them develop into senior-level managers. Our Executive Vice President of Human Resources, who also serves as our Chief Diversity Officer, is charged with providing training that reinforces our commitment to treat all of our employees with dignity and respect.
